Indeed a well controlled air temperature is essential.
However I believe this method does not need air inlet temperature or ambient - except to check the method result and it is essential that they are constant.
I have made some measurements and calculations:
The lack of air temperature control is visible here as a deviation from the ideal curve. This will be throwing the reading but I am now pretty certain this is a valid method.
Important to note that this is the System heat dissipation C/W, not just the Radiator.
