Nice. The fine mist (definately agitated and non-flat surface) and the airflow maximize evaporation, cooling the air.

Air's capacity to hold water vapor is unaffected by temperature, it is the temperature of the water vapor and its condensation/evaporation equilibrium that matter. Of course the sensible temperature of the comingled gases (air and water vapor) is the same. If the air is exhausted below ambient condensation will be highly unlikely.

About the only suggestion I'd make for piece of mind is a droplet barrier of some sort. This would act as a filter to catch any non-evaporated water. It would be much better to have mineral deposits and the like accumulate there rather than in the air path of your radiator.
