Surface radiators for water cooled engines

The auto radiator is
designed for different conditions mainly:
1) High disipation at low air flow speeds
2) Clean air entering front surface (Reynolds number less than 10,000)
2) Drag not an issue

An aircraft/cowl-surface scenario doesn't have the condition of high
power output and low airflow and thustly should not besigned for this
condition. Even on the climb out, while the IAS may be low, the prop
wash is turbulent and higher in velocity than the speed of the vehicle
itself.

Well, since you already have it all figured out and know all the answers what
are you waiting for, do it. We are obviously unknowing of the solutions which
you have worked out and are waiting to be proved wrong.
