You forgot about one method of heat loss. RADIATION. Less than 25 percent of the LEM/Command Module was exposed to sunlight, the remainder was radiating away heat into space.

Radiation is all I've been talking about, if you read my posts. What people don't realize is that the vacuum of space is an insulator. Radiation is very inefficient. Also, human bodies generate heat. Read the posts.
