One factor I've not seen mentioned is agitating the water to increase thermal cooling.
Anyone that doubts the effectiveness in cooling a block of aluminum or steel with water, I suggest draining the coolant from your car and seeing how far you can drive before your engine overheats. Bet you won't get far...
If you didn't notice look back at my system, it provides a continious flow of cool water up the sides of the tank.
