Another factor that worries me, but now in the tests of the bill, they are the cooland flow rate used , a variation from 2 to 12 liters per minute generates a very calm situation of entrance in the cameras, generating very little turbulence and checking a homogeneous feeding of the flat tubes, very different situation when it is used above 20 or 30 liters per minute, in my opinion demanded for systems of high efficiency.
20 or 30 lpm is many times greater then the highest flow system I have ever heard of. AFAIK no such systems exist. You'd need hundreds of watts of pump to push that through a 1/2 inch system.

12lpm was included as an extreme upper limit. Even pushing that through a system is very impressive.
