I think almost totally reponsible Les

From properties here.

Some charts:
Density and Viscosity


Giving Kinematic Viscosity

Well, some fumbling.


(how do you push 4 lpm through a 2mm diameter tube?)

The step from Reynolds number to Nusselt to "h" is fraught. I have no idea of the barrier thickness, no clue how to guess either. Empericality rules. Suffice to say that Nusselt (and thereby "h") is proportional to Reynolds. Ish.
