It produces an occluded front.
(P.s: I have never studied any of this as I am only in year 9. However, I remember seeing this question + answer elsewhere. Hopefully this helped).

Answer: Occluded Front

Explanation: In case of an occluded front, the cold front completely replaces the warm front from its ground surface and temperature drops down very effectively.

Also when a warm front is trapped in between two cold front, then it shows the characteristics of an occluded front, thereby converting all of its warm air into cold air and makes the environment cold.
