Your block lose no heat by convection when you're not moving (if I understand physics well enough, your car isn't moving when you start it first thing in the morning). There is no difference between starting your car at -20 with zero wind or at -20 with 60km/h wind. Once the engine is firing on all cylinders and you start driving, it may even get hotter in the 60km/h wind scenario, assuming you're driving with a tailwind.

I just leave this for you to read :

Lol go return your doctorate and start from scratch. I started learning physics at age 0.1 and got my doctorate at age 0.11 so you’ll have a hard time beating me.

Now to educate you:
Convection. Car isn’t moving when you start it first thing in the morning. Glad you got that much figured out. But if the wind is moving... the car is effectively moving in relation to air particles. It’s all a matter of perspective. Therefore moving car = moving air = effected by convection.

But then again what do I know, I’m just a dumb MD.
