your plot is heat vs. flow, how does it differ from this one ?
had the flow rate been reduced to 0.3lpm I suspect the same order of magnitude diffences would be seen
of course that 'efficiency peak' is still an artifact

Energy balance.
Your radiator system is tested with a constant coolant/air differential.
Here the heat source Wattage is fixed* and any increase in "Heat Extracted" will result in a reduction in Chilling**(EDIT).
This does not happen :-
* Assuming minimal changes in the gains/losses from enviroment and pump.
EDIT ** Wrong. Will show increase.
