For the thermodynamics gurus present. How efficient is liquid to liquid heat transfer - as in our oil and transmission coolers relative to air to liquid as in the radiator itself? I know it's more so, but not how much more so. Twice? power of ten or more? My only experience is with vapor phase cooling in UHF television transmitter klystrons. They generated so much heat due to electrical inefficiency the only way you could remove it was by heat of vaporization. Is there any great value in the outboard transmission coolers? Are we taking aim squarely at our foot if we bypass the radiator cooler?
