not a whole bunch of data on chilled coolant wbs
my tests have gone to 5°C only, with an 'open' wb
what I did see was a marked increase in flow resistance
(and note that my pump is big enough to ignore - not normally the case)

as the 'theory' would lead one to believe, fin sizing, spacing, etc. would necessarily be rather different
- but as the dT goes up, the whole task becomes easier

perhaps Les will run some bp thickness calcs for us ?
(my thought is for greater thickness)

chilled water is the future (for those not already there)
