I think radiators are designed to be effective at a minimal flow rate. Almost every analysis and graph I have seen would indicate that even radiators have to have a minimal flow to be effective, with a diminishing return as the flow gets to a certain point.

It would be interesting if someone could get some concrete info on this. A radiator manufacturer would probably be the place to start. Maybe myv65 knows more about this.
