Zhentar, see the bottom part of this one, it addresses your comment about pump heat. (sorry, you got it wrong...)
Yes, all the power going into the pump in a closed loop system exits the pump as heat. (The proportion that exits through the pump casing and through the water will vary depending on the system.) Only in a system where water is pumped from one location to another, is power exiting 'the system' in the form of kinetic energy.
