[QUOTE="BlackBolt9, post: 5341141, member: 36489"] Which two schools? Harvard and MIT? How can you take two different approaches to a heat transfer problem? Heat from hot intake charge air is transferred (added) into the water through the intercooler (heat exchanger). The water is the moved to the radiator (heat exchanger) where the heat is then removed from the water so that when it returns to the intercooler it can once again take heat away from the air again. If you move the water too quickly it cannot lose enough heat energy in the radiator to remove a signifcant amount of heat from the air the next time through the intercooler. Cooler ambient temperature does lead to a quicker rate of transfer of heat from the water. Also more air being moved through the radiator increases heat transfer as water can carry a higher thermal load than air by volume at standard atmospheric conditions. [/QUOTE]
