I would hazard a guess that there is something else going on when the secondary return pump is on.
I doubt you would lose the heat from the cylinder and pipe work in that amount of time, if you haven't used any hot water.
Is there a pressure relief valve on the secondary circuit that may be passing when the pump is running?
This would cause an influx of cold water to the system - when the pump is running.
Sounds odd, but even un-insulated pipework, should not lose that much heat over that time.
