cold air cooling the radiator does so only by virtue of the volume of air
combined with the temperature difference between the air & radiator. When
moving in cold air, more heat is able to be transferred out of (or off of
the surface of) the radiator.

The term wind chill is used to describe the "felt" cold. It's factors are
wind temp and speed, in regaurds to it's affect of evaporation against our
skin. Wind chill by literal definition has no effect on inantimate objects.
