The same way anything else does. Your body warms the air around it and as that air moves around it takes that heat with it. This is how fans make you feel cooler. They air they blow at you is the same temperature as the rest of the air in the room but it blows the air your body heated away and allows cooler air to touch you. That is convection and it makes the cooling process more effective.

Your oven works by radiant heat also.

If you could take a infra-red photo of yourself you would see a person-shaped cloud of warmer air surrounding you. You warmed this air with radiant heat. If you added a fan you would see cooler air channeled towards you and the hot air moving away, this would be convection. :)

Hope this helps,

Radiation


How can the body lose heat from radiation conduction and convection?

For example, you are touching something that feels like you are putting your hands into something very ice cold. That is how you can lose heat from your body.


The ways in which a human can gain and lose heat?

A person can lose/gain heat in five ways: Conduction is the transfer of heat directly from one object to another. For example sitting on the cold leather seats of an unwarmed vehicle. Convection is the loss of heat through moving air or liquid. When it is cold we lose heat through the blowing wind Evaporation occurs when a liquid changes into a gas. Sweating is an example of evaporation. Radiation is heat sent outward into the air from your body and into nearby colder objects. It is also known as infrared energy. Respiraton is also when our body breathes in warm and humidified air and exhales carrying heat from the body.

Where do you lose the most body heat?

You lose most of your body heat through your head. This is why cold-weather places often have extreme solutions to keep the head warm such as a scarf, scull cap, or fur headresses.


How does your body lose heat through urination and defecation?

Heat loss through urination and defecation occurs due to the high water content in urine and feces. When urine leaves the body, it takes away some heat with it. Similarly, when feces are eliminated, they also carry away a small amount of heat. However, the overall amount of heat lost through these processes is relatively small compared to other mechanisms such as evaporative cooling through sweating.

How animals cope with heat?

There are four avenues of heat loss: convection, conduction, radiation, and evaporation. If skin temperature is greater than that of the surroundings, the body can lose heat by radiation and conduction. But if the temperature of the surroundings is greater than that of the skin, the body actually gains heat by radiation and conduction. In such conditions, the only means by which the body can rid itself of heat is by evaporation. So when the surrounding temperature is higher than the skin temperature.
