Quick guide is to multiply the length x height x width of the room in feet (round it up to the nearest foot ) then for a living room/dining room/ bathroom multiply by 5 or bedroom/kitchen multiply by 3 that will give you a BTU rating. Then just look for a radiator a little bigger in it's rating than that.
Alternatively use something like www.diy.com they have an online calculator in the radiator section.

On a 2001 Dodge Dakota where is the radiator petcock?
Remove the plastic cover underneath the radiator(passenger side) to access the radiator drain and you will need a large screwdriver.
What do you need to know to calculate the heat needed to melt a block of ice at its melting point?
To calculate the heat needed to melt a block of ice at its melting point, you need to know the mass of the ice block, the specific heat capacity of ice, and the heat of fusion of ice (or latent heat of fusion). The formula to calculate this heat is Q = m * ΔHf, where Q is the heat energy, m is the mass, and ΔHf is the heat of fusion.
Why does a car need a radiator to operate effectively?
Not all cars do (eg electric cars). However if the car is powered by a combustion engine then the engine produces heat and this heat must be dissipated or the engine will overheat and cease. This is why combustion engine powered vehicles need a cooling system/radiator.
Why do you need the area of a square for architecture?
To calculate the air and heat conditioning requirements
How do you determine how large of baseboard heat I need in addition?
Calculate the heat loss in btu`s of the new addition at design indoor& outdoor temps for your area, baseboard strips are rated in btu`s for given lengths. Match the length with the loss.
How do you calculate heat energy when you know volume and temperature?
To calculate heat energy when you know volume and temperature, you would need to use the formula Q = mcΔT, where Q is the heat energy, m is the mass of the substance, c is the specific heat capacity of the substance, and ΔT is the change in temperature. Given volume, you would also need to know the density of the substance to calculate the mass.
What would make 2006 KIA sportage over heat?
Lack of water in the radiator. Or could be you need a new thermostat.
Why do pipes carrying the steam to the radiator need to be insulated?
Other wise heat loss will occur and the radiators wont be as hot.

How many calories are given to a household radiator when 1000gm of 100 and degC steam condenses and drops in temperature to 90 and degC water?
To calculate the calories given to a household radiator when 1000 grams of steam condenses and cools, we need to consider both the heat released during condensation and the heat lost as the water cools. The heat released during the condensation of steam is given by the latent heat of vaporization, which is approximately 540 calories per gram. Therefore, for 1000 grams, this amounts to 540,000 calories. Additionally, cooling the water from 100°C to 90°C releases another 1,000 calories (using the specific heat capacity of water, 1 cal/g°C). In total, the radiator receives approximately 541,000 calories.

When do you know you need a new radiator?
If your radiator is leaking then you will need to replace it. Additionally, if you find that your car is constantly running hot you will need a new radiator.
