Anyone tried using a humidifier at the intake to increase cooling?
I'm thinking it could cool in 2 ways:
1) Humid air has higher heat capacity so the same volume moving across your heat sink can absorb more heat. It's like moving more air across your heat sink.
2) If you get cheap humidifiers that don't convert water into water vapor right away and you see "steam" come out, it's even better cuz the mini water dropplets can remove more heat away from heat sinks as they evaporate on them.
So, anyone tried this before?
