changes in temperature, altitude, and humidity are going to affect the radiator's cooling ability/performance a lot different than the engine's so there's another variable or two for you.Oh. Well x amount of fuel and air will produce x amount of BTUs. From there you would need to know the water/coolant ratio with the radiator volume and you could get the maximum BTUs it could remove and still maintain x temperature. The water/coolant ratio is why you need the temp sensor. Of course exhaust egt and natural engine radiation factors in making it not direct.
Every path from point a to b to me is linear. I guess a direct temperature relationship may not be the best way to describe it. Lines can have curves cross over themselfs go one direction then another or just be straight. The BTUs produced and BTUs radiated is or should be a direct relationship other wise the engine is soaking them up and that's not a good thing after a certain point..
I think there is only a CHT sensor but it won't be too hard to figure out about the CHT vs radiator temp sensor, just call and order them from the parts dept.
RockAuto.com only lists a CHT sensor, for example.
