I have the same problem and I hope I Can get an answer.
When something becomes cold, heat energy is removed from it. This causes the molecules in the substance to slow down and the overall temperature to decrease.
If both the top and bottom radiator hoses are cold, it is likely that the thermostat is stuck closed, preventing coolant from flowing through the radiator. This can result in poor engine cooling. Additionally, air trapped in the cooling system can also cause both hoses to remain cold. Purging the air and checking the thermostat would be recommended in this situation.
The radiator is filled with hot water from another location. The water then heats up the metal that the radiator is made of, and the metal heats up the air in the room.The most efficient location for a radiator is underneath a window. This is because the air near the window(and the air leaking in from the window) will be cold, and will therefore drop down to the floor because cold air is heavier than warm air. On its way towards the floor the cold air will pass near the radiator where it will be warmed up, and afterwards rise towards the ceiling of the room. When the air eventually cools down it will drop to the floor, where it eventually will be heated again by the radiator. The air will continue to rotate in this manner.In older buildings the radiator was placed near the center of the apartment, as this was where fireplaces were previously situated. However this proved ineffective as the cold air seeping in from the windows would have to cross the floor to reach the radiator and be heated, resulting in a very cold floor.
heat is transferred from your skin to the ice cube due to the difference in temperature between them. This transfer of heat causes the ice cube to melt and the sensation of coldness is felt as the heat is removed from your skin.
The best place to install a radiator for optimal heating efficiency is under a window. This placement allows the radiator to counteract the cold air that comes in through the window, resulting in more efficient heating.
Possible causes include an inoperative radiator fan and low freon levels.Possible causes include an inoperative radiator fan and low freon levels.

Check to coolant level in the coolant recovery tank and radiator when engine is cold
Convection is the movement of molecules in fluids and gasses. An example of convection is a warm radiator. A radiator warms the air near it which causes this air to rise. This also sucks in cold air from near the floor, which also gets heated and rises. This causes a circulation within a room.
Do it when the car is cold if the radiator is hot fluid may be forced out when you take off the cap.
Remove the radiator cap ONLY when the engine is cold.
You do not have one. Disconect the lower radiator hose. (after cold)
On a 2000 Ford Ranger : With the engine cold the radiator should be filled to the seat for the radiator cap and the engine coolant reservoir should be filled to the cold mark
there may not be one if there is is it on the bottom side and if it is not you candrain it by removing the bottom rad hose The 1999 Pontiac Grand Am does not have a radiator drain valve. To drain the radiator, remove the lower radiator hose. The engine should be cold and the water fill cap removed for venting. I have a 2000 Pontiac Grand AM and radiator drain cock is located at the lower/front (not bottom) at the curbside of the radiator, you will need a hex key to back out petcock. .
A radiator is defective if fluids are leaking out of the radiator or there is a leak of steam. Or, if thecore is blocked, the radiator will remain cold or just slightly warm in places.
Over-obvious answer? Your radiator, or one of your radiator hoses, leaks - badly.
No. Let it cool down before you open the radiator cap and then put water in the radiator
