Default Dummy load power rating

I was cleaning up today and came across an old dummy load I had that looks
like it is made from 2 watt resistors. ITs mounted on a quart size paint
can lid and looks to be a 50 watts worth of resistors. This looks like it
may have been a commercially built unit and I was wondering what the power
handling capability would be if the resistors were submerged in mineral
oil.

Next time I ask about something I will have it in my hand when I discribe
it. Dummy load is 44 each 2.2K 2 watt resistors in paralell.
I think I will rebuild it using metal film.
