i was about to say about small changes at low temps also the car water temp is exceptionally high so things are a bit iffy then.

I need to think about this correction for energy loss when water travels down a pipe. On one hand it makes alot of sense on the other the exteneed bernouli equation on which WC analysis is based is actually a load of bollocks. Either way W add in a block is small enough not to get me to worried saying that.

power = dP*Q

dP is proportional to mean velocity^2 which is roughly proportional to Q^2 (need to do maths to establish abit more)

Power = k * Q^3 so for high flow values i can see what your saying hmmm.
