There is a gradient of head from the inside of the cylinder to the outside of the head. Combustion creates the heat and the airflow disapates it. Has anyone measured the latent heat found when you turn off the engine? One would expect that the temperature at the surface of the cylinder head to increase after the engine stops due to no air cicrulation and the gradient averaging out. How much increase is there?
