radiators should be black because black not only absorbs heat, it also gives out a lot of heat as well.
If you think this is wrong or I have no proof please see the question
how do you make an experiment up of "looking at heat absorbsion and reflection"

Why central heating radiators work better if they are painted black?
The color black neturally magnifies heat.
When were radiators invented?
Radiators were invented in 1855
Why the radiators painted black?
You can paint the radiator tanks any color you want to but don't paint the radiator core itself. Painting the core will negatively affect the radiators ability to transfer heat away from the engine coolant.
Why is silver not used in central heating radiators?
Silver is a valuable metal, and is thus not used in radiators.
Why do radiators seem like the most attractive thing in the world?
because radiators are players. they will mess with your mind
Are the surfaces of car radiators dull or shiny?
Most car radiators are black as black radiates heat more efficiently than any other color.
Why central heating radiators work better if they are painted black?
The color black neturally magnifies heat.
What do radiators produce?
Radiators produce heat.
When were radiators invented?
Radiators were invented in 1855
What are radiators and what are its 2 examples?
Radiators do not actually radiate heat, they should actually be called convectors. example 1: a nuclear turbine radiates example 2: my pants radiate
Are thermal radiators and engine cooling radiators the same?
no
Why the radiators painted black?
You can paint the radiator tanks any color you want to but don't paint the radiator core itself. Painting the core will negatively affect the radiators ability to transfer heat away from the engine coolant.
When was The Radiators from Space created?
The Radiators from Space was created in 1977.
Are Ford Falcons and Rancheros the same as far as radiators go?
The only Rancheros that used the Falcon chassis was the 1960-66 models. The radiators those years should be identical, if the engines were the same.
My radiators in the bedrooms are cold and don't heat up but they are warm and toasty in the rest of the house we have oil heat any suggestions?
I assume that you are referring to hot water radiators, heated by an oil furnace. These radiators could have air in them and will not allow the hot water to fill them and give off any heat. If these are connected to the same hot water line that feeds the other working radiators, the in and out lines and the bottom on the cold ones should be hot. These radiators will then have to have the air bled out of them. They should have a valve on the top somewhere to do this. If there is no heat in the lines there must be separate line to that room that is plugged or shut off.
How does convection take place in your boiler?
Through cast Iron radiators and copper tubing and schedule 40 black steel piping
Does a dog have an electromagnetic spectrum?
Yes, but in the case of solid objects that possess heat it is more proper to refer to them as black body radiators.
