Liquid cooling is the most common method of cooling an engine.
Advantages of liquid cooling:
The engine cools more uniformaly. The flow of liquid coolant can be better controled than outside air flow
Less engine noise. The liquid around the cylinders help dampen noise.
Whe the engine is switched off after a road trip, it remians warm longer. This helps reach operating temperature more rapidly after a pause in driving.
