Better yet: keep yourself wet while using the fan. The evaporation of water molecules cools you down.

I've walked around music festivals for days in the sun with a water bottle, and used more water for soaking the hair on my head than for drinking. Works wonders :)

When I'm in a snowfield under the sun I'll smear snow on myself and stuff it down my shirt. Has the same effect.
