Greenman, you shouldn't have focused just on turbulence. As water travels through the radiator, it's temperature decreases. Since transfer depends on delta-T (and Andre didn't deny that point), we want to maximize delta-T by moving the cooling water out of the rad as quickly as possible. This argument is persuasive in its simplicity.
