A good radiator of heat can absorb and release heat effectively, while a good reflector of heat can bounce heat off its surface. Radiators are designed to dissipate heat, while reflectors redirect heat away from a surface.
The shiny surface is a reflector, to reflect the heat outwards towards you.
Yes, a shiny silver surface is a good radiator of heat because it has high reflectivity, which means it can reflect thermal radiation effectively. However, the ability to radiate heat also depends on factors such as surface area and the surrounding environment.
Conduction is the heat transfer process that warms your hand when placed over a radiator. The radiator transfers heat to your hand through direct contact, as the molecules of your hand gain kinetic energy from the warm radiator surface.
Lots of surface area - its designed that way.
More surface area to dissipate heat, the more exposed surface of a material the more place to 'let out' the heat
bad thermostat or bad heat gasket
No, white surfaces are not good radiators of heat. White surfaces are better at reflecting sunlight and heat, which is why they are often used in hot climates to keep buildings cool. Dark surfaces, on the other hand, absorb and radiate heat more effectively.
Low coolant, bad thermostat, clogged radiator, bad waterpump, bad headgasket, etc
Only if it is allowing Fluid to escape. Does the radiator and heater core have enough fluid to circulate. If not you will not have heat.

A shiny silvered surface is generally better at radiating heat compared to a white surface. The reflective nature of silver helps to minimize heat absorption, allowing it to emit more thermal radiation and cool down faster.
