Heating radiators in buildings freeze when the water gets 0 Celsius.
In cars it controlled by the strength of the coolant mixture. Where I live we target 40 below for safety, but at that strength the coolant doesn't really freeze at 40 below, it kind of "gel's" and wont circulate anymore, freezing at a lower unspecified temperature.
The time it takes for a radiator to freeze at 30°F would depend on various factors, such as the initial temperature of the radiator, its size, the surrounding temperature, and the material it is made of. In general, it could take several hours to freeze completely at that temperature. Cooling rates can vary significantly based on these factors.
No, hot water does not freeze more quickly than room temperature water. In fact, hot water takes longer to freeze because it has to cool down to the same temperature as room temperature water before it can start freezing.
Yes, a puddle would likely freeze at -5 degrees Celsius because water freezes at or below 0 degrees Celsius. The lower the temperature, the faster the puddle will freeze.
A lake freezes at 32 degrees Fahrenheit (0 degrees Celsius). The temperature needs to be consistently below freezing for the lake to freeze completely.
Spring water can freeze if the temperature drops low enough. However, spring water may resist freezing at higher temperatures compared to tap water due to minerals and impurities that act as antifreeze, lowering its freezing point. Nevertheless, if the temperature is cold enough, spring water will eventually freeze like any other water.

Internal combustion engines are cooled by anti-freeze (AKA coolant). The anti-freez circulates the coolant through the engine and radiator. When the cooland flows through the radiator, the air passing though the radiator cools the anti-freeze, hence allowing cool anti-freeze to ciculate through engine, thus reducing temperature.
Check the radiator anti freeze level. it maybe low.
A clog in your radiator, a broken water pump, low oil.
No, the freeze plugs are on the engine.
what temperature does diesel freeze at in Celsius
The radiator
Empty the radiator - and re-fill it ! Car anti-freeze is added to the water in the radiator so, if you drain it and re-fill it, you can add a fresh quantity of anti-freeze into the radiator filler hole.
Failed gasket, seal, hose, freeze plug, radiator.......
You can put ice in your radiator. Keep in mind that the ice is just water and you should have SAE certified anti-freeze in your radiator
You have to check if you have Anti-freeze in the radiator, make sure you check when the car is cold not hot! If Anti-freeze is not present make sure you do not have a leak. If Anti-freeze is present then it most likely is your thermostat which should only run you $20 to fix. Good Luck
You should fill a radiator with a coolant solution that is specifically formulated for use in automotive cooling systems. Water mixed with the appropriate ratio of coolant is typically recommended to keep the engine running at the right temperature and prevent it from overheating.
