EDIT: Question directed at jman1310.
∆T is the difference between the cooling fluid and the ambient temp.

an oil cooler during normal use (on a transmission or a crank case) is cooling a fluid that's at 150-200 degrees

the fluid in a watering setup shouldn't be much over 100-120 degrees while the ambient is 70-90. these are very general numbers, as there are seasonal differences and other factors
