[QUOTE="Bobt250, post: 265538, member: 27938"] What I was trying to say, and not very well was this: Imagine that the water moving in the water jacket of the cylinder was broken down into units, lets say CC's. As a given unit of water passed over a given point of the hot aluminum it would absorb some heat. The fact that it is moving faster means that a given unit of water absorbs less heat BUT, there is another unit of cold water following right behind and will pick up it's share of heat. Each individual unit of water picks up less heat but there will be more units of water picking up heat in a given period of time. The total amount of heat removed should be more since the water isn't held in place by a thermostat resulting in colder water and the difference in temperature is greater between the aluminum and the water. Oh well. I think, so therefore I am. Huh? [/QUOTE]
