My physics side wants to say that this would be a net loser. Most any turbine you placed that would effectively be pushed by the air, would be putting back pressure on the fan, making it work harder to disperse the heat from the coil and condenser. Think of it like a fluid (because it is). You are asking one pump that is already pumping "water" to now power a turbine, and expecting the pump not to have to work harder to do so. There may be some slight nuance to this particular situation, but i think overall you have a net loser of energy. On the bright side though, it gives you a good bit of experience setting up a small diy wind turbine, give it a shot and report back here with the results.
Every day on this side of the grass is a good day. The first on the other side will be even better.
