Actually, cool air tends to be more dense and flow under warm air
In an electrical space heater, electrical current dissipates energy into heat, and the heat radiates from the element. In a fuel powered space heater, an orifice throttles the fuel feed (resistance to flow), which controls the heating rate. In a steam powered space heater, an orifice throttles the steam (resistance to flow), which controls the heating rate.
I assume ... Thermal meaning warm(th) and by upwards flow you would be talking about air? Immagine this ... If you take a bit of metal and you warm it up (a lot), it expands. something very similar happens to the air. When you warm things up what you are really doing is making the particles move around a whole bunch more ... meaning that they need more space. Now if the particales are suddenly taking up more space and so are further apart from each other you will have fewer particles in a 10 by 10 space full of warm air than in a 10 by 10 space of cold air. This means that the 10 by 10 space of warm air is also lighter than the 10 by 10 space of cold air and so can rise to the top, creating an 'upward' flow. If we didnot live on a planet and so did not have such a strong gravitational field, this wouldn't happen! (not to mention that there is no proper 'up and down' in space)
Solids do not flow because there is very little intermolecular space between them and hence they hold each other very tightly so they cannot flow
Look for a closed valve or other restriction to flow in the room with no heat. It could also be a pocket of air that needs to be bled. Lastly, if it is basebord radiation be sure the # of fins are adequate. If it is all or mostly bare pipe even with flow it will not heat the space.
assistance in evaluating confined spaces
Of course, viscosity is the measure of a liquid's ability to flow. Water being able to flow through a confined space easier than both of those means it has the lowest viscosity.
No human can ever live in space because there is no oxygen to breath and no water can flow in space and other living can't live in space

When the blood flow pumped by the heart is confined in the vessels( veins,arteries, capillaries.)
Fluid flow in an annular space occurs during a drilling operation of the gas and oil well. The correct prediction of the flow lies in the drilling mud in the annular space between the well.
Under, cool air is heavier.
No it does not affect air flow. The air will just not be as cool.
They are wetThey flow downhill
It was Frank Lloyd Wright's influence that created the open flow of space in today's homes.
no this depends on air flow and other factors within the room, but in a controlled environment it does yes.
