It is actually better with flow top, return bottom, gravity or pumped.



Why? Surely it would be better with flow bottom and return top to get

Flow doesn't matter for a pumped system,


No so. In general the flow in a pumped system is on the bottom for
convenience and cosmetic appeal. The work better, pumped or not, when the
flow is on the top of the radiator.
