But thank you anyway, for your comments.
I guess blowing causes reduced cooling because they are being compressed and compressed gasses get hot. Sucked gasses provide additional cooling via expansion into the space left by the extracted gasses.

Boyle's Law + Charles' Law + Gay-Lussac's Law at work? PV=kT

Pressure x Volume = Konstant x Temperature
