Energy in the form of heat to move from areas of higher temperature to areas of lower temperature in three ways namely conduction, convection, and radiation. Conduction heat transfer occurs in solids, heat transfer by convection occurs at the boundary between solid and fluid surfaces, and the radiation transfer occurs between two separate objects even without the intermediary of a medium.
In the radiation heat transfer, energy is transfered by electromagnetic waves in the form of photons with the smallest unit of speed equal to the speed of light. Radiation is grouped into several types, including thermal radiation, X-rays and Gamma rays.
Types of radiation in the mode of heat transfer is thermal radiation, the radiation that occurs simply because the temperatures were just objects.

Thanks for sharing this information.- cgthermal.com
Excellent information. One of the most important pieces of equipment at many industrial sites, appliances, machines and especially in the oil and gas industry, is the heat exchanger. The reason for its high importance is because a heat exchanger is an equipment that is designed to efficiently transfer heat. To avoid problems with over heating and down time of machines. Though, this could really happen but atleast if you have these heat exchangers these problems are prevented. Moreover, thanks for discussing the different types of heat exchangers for giving me further ideas and more infos about it. Thanks! - cgthermal.com
