Thermal energy is just heat. To convert it to mechanical energy you need some sort of heat engine, like an internal combustion engine or a gas turbine.

How do you convert thermal energy into radiant energy?
i think you can not convert thermal energy into radiant energy
How does a contracting protostar convert gravitational energy into thermal energy?
Sliding friction tends to convert kinetic energy into thermal energy, thermal energy being heat, kinetic energy being movement.
What can thermal energy convert into?
Thermal energy can be converted into alot of things just go find out what it is.
Unlike other forms of energy thermal energy is not easy to what?
Thermal energy is the most difficult to convert into other forms of energy.
Is thermal energy ever completely convertible to mechanical energy?
No. You can only convert thermal energy to other types of energy if you have a difference of temperatures between two objects, and then you can only convert part of the thermal energy. The remainder will flow from the hotter object to the colder object.

How do you convert Mass into thermal energy?
You generally need a catalyst or a mechanism to convert the energy. For example to convert fuel (a mass) into thermal energy, oxidizer and a spark are needed.
What devices convert electrical energy to thermal energy?
