One meter head of pressure, one radiator two metres above, and no flow at all.”
Unless?
Unless, as you mention above, we have a closed system of rigid pipes with no airlocks; in which case the pump ony has to overcome the resistance of the system and not gravity. Unlike electricity, one can still have flow with an open circuit, so I don't think that the analogy is a good one.
If your pipes aren't rigid, the rules don't apply either - so which animal has the highest blood pressure?
