Modes of Heat Transfer
• Radiation-heat energy in transit as electromagnetic radiation• Convection-involves fluid currents that carry heat from one
place to another• Conduction-energy is transferred from a high temperature
region to low temperature region due to random molecular motion (diffusion)

Radiant Energy
• Electromagnetic energy that travels in transverse waves. Radiant energy includes visible light, x-rays, gamma rays and radio waves. Light is one type of radiant energy. Sunshine is radiant energy, which provides the fuel and warmth that make life on Earth possible.
