Summary 1: In most places, we get heat in all three ways from our environment: conducted heat from the solids we touch, convected heat in the air around us, and radiated heat from those sources of radiation in our line of sight.
Summary 2: Of the three, conducted heat is trivial, since any surface hot enough to conduct heat to us directly is too hot for comfort.
Summary 3: As far as the other two are concerned - convected heat and radiant heat - we may ask whether there is any biological difference in their effects on human beings.
Summary 4: Hot air systems, and buried pipes, and the so-called hot water "Radiators" do transmit some of their heat to us by means of radiation, but most of the heat we get from them comes from convection.
Summary 5: The conditions in which people feel most comfortable require a subtle balance of convected heat and radiant heat.
Summary 6: Radiant panels, with individual room control, and infrared heaters hung from walls and ceilings, are possible high technology sources of radiant heat..
