There are two ways this can happen. A leak on the suction side of the circulator will suck air into the system when the pump comes on. The second way is when a pre-charged expansion tank blows and allows it's pre-charge of air into the system.
Both causes will require repair and then re purging the system.
I have an ebook that may help also on Amazon. "Understanding Hot Water Heating Systems" That will answer all of your questions.

There is also some amount of dissolved air in freshly supplied water and it will form bubbles as it is heated and circulated, but these should be removed by automatic air vents properly installed in the system, usually BEFORE the main circulator.

What is the difference between a hot-water heating system and a warm-air heating system?
A hot water heating system (hydronic) uses heated water to circulate from a boiler to baseboard radiators or convectors, where the heat is wanted. This is done through a series of piping and pump(s) that move the heated water around. Warm air systems use a furnace to heat air and a fan to move the warm air through ducts to the point of use.

can a home hot water heating system (radiators) be converted to gas fueled from oil fueled heating meathods?
Another name for a hot water heating system?
Hydronics
Where does the heating process begin in a hot water heater system?
the boiler.
How do you bleed air out of water heating system?
It depends on if you mean "domestic" hot water system or radiator heating system:For a domestic hot water system, you might try the following:open all the hot water faucets in the house and then shut them back off starting with the lowest after it stops spitting air and continue the same with all the others until you get to the highest faucet in the house (usually the kitchen faucet) once it starts putting out a steady stream of water you're all done.For a hot-water radiator system, you should run the system to pressurize each heating zone, then use the bleeder valve on the top of the radiator, or somewhere on each loop, to let out the accumulated air. There are also automatic air vents that allow air out under pressure, but not water. A properly installed system should also have an air-venting system installed prior to the main circulator, as well as one or more "purging valves" to use when the system has been drained for repairs and refilled.There will be a relief valve somewhere. This is the place to bleed off excess air.
How do you compare a hot water heating system with a warm air heating system?
It gets hotter and hotter
Could you install Air conditioning in a hot water heating system?
No, there is no blower or duct work. You can't chill the water in the heating system and get cold air out of it.
