Radiator relief valve

Been loosing water a little at a time lately. Added too much today and notice bunch coming out after engine warmed up.

Is there any sort of relief valve or something or is my radiator broke?

If it's coming out of your radiator it's cracked.

No relief valve. Just the expansion tank.
