Radiators

Under normal circumstances it will have some pressure just less than the bottom hose. The bottom hose is directly pressurized by the water pump while the upper hose acts as a return hose to keep the water flowing through the engine block. If there is no pressure you could be low on radiator fluid (water/anti freeze mixed) or have a thermostat stuck open.

few things is can be one blow head gasket two crack head cylinder, I had that problem too smelled gas in the coolant found out the head gasket was worn out and letting coolant and oil mix in the combustion chamber

There are several types of radiators including panel radiators, convector radiators, column radiators, and electric radiators. Each type has its own design and heating capabilities to suit different needs and preferences.

If the bubbles are because you need to bleed the system, full bleeding can have many sequences. All cars require that your heater is set to the max heat so that the valve is fully open and able to except coolant and allow to release bubbles. you'll also have to fill the radiator with the correct coolant all the way to the filler neck. next you'll have to see if your vehicle has a bleed valve somewhere around the engines upper inlet. if it does have one open it slightly. bubbles will Begin to escape as the are escaping keep filling the radiator to the top till you see that threw the bleed valve your getting a steady stream of coolant coming out. If it does not have a bleed valve you will have to fill it to the top. Turn the engine on and allow the thermostat to open. when this happens the coolant level will drop. Add more coolant in the radiator and accelerate the vehicle to 2000 rpm for 2-3 minutes. this will allow the water pump to pull air bubbles out the radiator filler neck. you will have to do this maybe 3 times max to get all air bubbles out of the system. once you have achieved this fill the reservoir to the middle of the hot and cold lines because by then you have warmed up your engine a bit.

Coolant, which is typically a mixture of water and antifreeze, is used in radiators to help regulate the temperature of the engine by absorbing and dissipating heat. Some vehicles may also use alternative coolant solutions such as propylene glycol or ethylene glycol.

dissipitated means omething caused to move in another direction

The metal spoon has a higher thermal conductivity than air, which allows heat to transfer faster from the radiator to the spoon. Air is a poor conductor of heat compared to metal, so the heat transfer is more efficient when the radiator is in direct contact with the metal spoon.

Rust-colored water in the radiator typically indicates the presence of rust or corrosion within the cooling system. This can be caused by old coolant, lack of maintenance, or the presence of air or contaminants in the system. It is important to flush the system and potentially replace the coolant to prevent damage to the engine.

A radiator to heat a room functions by having hot water pumped through it. This heats up the metal and the air around the radiator heats up and slowly spreads around the room, heatong it up. The radiator in a car has the same principal but the opposite affect. Cold water is stored/pumped through the radiator and the hot engine heats the water up where it then goes elsewhere to cool off again. A large majority of modern cars are cooled more and more by air running over the engine directly but water is more efficient (it's easier to run air over the engine if you're driving than it is to get more cold water)

Hot water flows through a radiator by entering through one side and exiting through the other. The hot water passes through the radiator's tubes or fins, transferring its heat to the surrounding air in the room. The heated air rises, creating convection currents that help circulate the warmth throughout the space.

Radiator is not a part of the AC system; it is part of the vehicle's cooling system, which helps to cool the engine by dissipating heat. The AC system consists of the compressor, condenser, and evaporator, which work together to cool and circulate air inside the vehicle.

Your radiator is your cooling system in your car so your car would over heat if you don't get that fixed soon and if it's a radiator at a house you would have no heat because that's a heater for your house

Fans should push air through the radiator. This is because pushing air through the radiator into the case helps to expel hot air faster and more effectively, which can improve overall cooling performance.

The most efficient way to increase a radiator's efficiency is to regularly bleed it to remove trapped air, insulate the pipes to prevent heat loss, and install a reflective radiator foil behind it to reflect heat back into the room. Additionally, ensuring that the radiator is clean and free from dust build-up can improve its performance.

If your coolant is brown, this means it has LOTS of rust in it. If this is the case, then you need to flush your cooling system and refill it with fresh coolant. Be sure to drain your engine block as well as your radiator, as MANY people neglect to do this. Without draining your engine block, you are basically just changing half your coolant.

To remove air from home radiators, you can bleed them by locating the air vent valve on each radiator and using a radiator key or flathead screwdriver to open the valve slightly until you hear hissing. Once water starts to come out, close the valve. Repeat this process for each radiator in your home. It's important to bleed the radiators while the heating system is turned off and cold.

Mixing gasoline in the radiator can cause serious damage to the cooling system of the vehicle. Gasoline is not a suitable coolant and can lead to overheating, corrosion, and potential engine damage. It is important to have the system flushed and refilled with the appropriate coolant if gasoline has been added accidentally.

When your coolant looks brown in color this means that you have got oil in your cooling system. This is not good, you could have a cracked head gasket or a crack in the block somewhere that is letting oil escape into the cooling system. The foam at the top of the radiator happens when the oil mixes with the coolant and then runs through the water pump. Hope this helps.

Radiator hoses can collapse due to a restriction in the cooling system, such as a blocked radiator or thermostat. This restriction causes a vacuum to form in the hoses, leading them to collapse under the pressure difference. Additionally, weakened or deteriorating hoses can also collapse over time due to the force of the coolant flowing through them.

You should use a torch for soldering a radiator. Torches provide a more controlled and even heat, making it easier to solder the joints effectively. Soldering guns are typically not recommended for radiator repair as they can overheat and damage the radiator.

Silver is not commonly used in central heating radiators due to its high cost compared to other metals like aluminum, steel, and copper. These metals are more cost-effective and provide good thermal conductivity for efficient heat transfer in radiators. Silver's high price makes it an impractical choice for mass-produced heating systems.

You can buy one of several products from your local auto parts store that will stop a small leak in the front of the radiator...

Now If you are mechanically inclined you can also mark where the hole is at and then drain and remove the radiator..

Once you do this you can clean the area around the pinhole and use a soldering gun and some 60/40 solder to permanantly seal the hole...

No, horizontal radiators are designed to work in a horizontal position and may not function effectively if installed vertically. Vertical radiators are specifically engineered to allow proper water flow and ensure efficient heat distribution, so it's best to use radiators in the orientation they are intended for.
