Gas in pipes passes almost no heat to pipe / surroundings

Today i made a cooling tower using wheezwort and hydrogen. I managed to cool down hydrogen to -50 degrees celsia and i wanted to use this extremely cool gas as coolant throughout my base. Soon i noticed though that even having thermaly reactive gas pipes they almost dont change temperature at all. For example after roughly 30-50 cycles running this pipe through 40 degrees water tank water barelly changed temperature although hydrogen in pipe is running there at around -10 degrees. Pipe is same temperature as water anyway. It feels like temperature should be already way lower by now.

Steps to Reproduce
1) create chamber full of -50 degrees celsius hydrogen with some wheezeworts (top right on attached image) 2) Pipe that hydrogen through 40 degrees censius water tank using heat reactive piping 3) Observe water temperature and pipe temperature is almost (same as surroundings)
