Just looking at it, isn't it basically just a really low performance phase-change cooling system? You're evaporating a working fluid, compressing it to condense it, dumping heat to atmosphere and reuse it.
Compared to a proper phase-change system, you're losing efficiency by effectively adding a heat exchanger and then using a really bad choice of working fluid.
