And that's why a 2 row aluminum passes 4115 btu and a four row copper brass
unit of the same size only passes 3296 btu.
The design of the tubes play a huge role in radiator efficiency, not merely the
conductivity of the metals.
Thus, the aluminum griffith cooling is superior.
Yeah, this starts another fireball...

Remember, copper cores cool better than aluminum.
