Blimey lots of activity here yesterday
If you look at PH's graph http://forums.procooling.com/vbb/showthread.php?t=8941

There seems to be 2 distinctly different curves. The Swiftech has a very different curve to the other blocks. Is this largely because of the baseplate thickness? It seems to make sense to me in my little world that the base plate thickness would have quite a large effect on the shape of the curve. I'll have to try and find that article Bill mentioned

Edit

Found the article quite informative. I think I'll have to crack out the Ansys. I ought to be revising Ansys now anyway for one of my exams although we are only doing structural stuff
