I'm not sure I understand your question, but hopefully this answers it...
There are 3 types of heat transfer. Conduction, convection, and radiation. Conduction is the transfer of heat between objects that are in contact. In other words, the molecules from a hot object bounce into the molecules of another object and transfer their kinetic energy. Convection is the transfer of heat in which particles of matter transfer heat to another location. For instance, say you are boiling water. High energy molecules in the water carry their energy to the air molecules jsut above the water's surface. When this heat is transferred the water molecule will then sink to the bottom of the pot generating what we would call a convection current. And lastly radiation...Radiation is transfer of heat that does not require a medium (matter) to travel. This heat is transferred in the form of electromagnetic radiation (basically light of different frequencies). The sun does this everyday. It delivers a solar wind to planet Earth, keeping us warm! :D
The ability to transfer thermal energy from one area to another is called thermal conductivity. It is a physical property of matter that quantifies how well a material can conduct heat. Materials with high thermal conductivity can transfer heat efficiently, while materials with low thermal conductivity are poor heat conductors.
Infrared radiation does not require matter to transfer thermal energy. It can travel through vacuum, such as outer space, and is responsible for the heat we feel from the sun.
Thermal energy is the energy that comes from the temperature of matter. It is the total kinetic energy of molecules in an object, which determines its temperature. Heat is the transfer of thermal energy from one object to another due to a difference in temperature.
True. Transfer of thermal energy by radiation does not require matter because it occurs through electromagnetic waves, such as infrared radiation, which can travel through vacuum where there is no matter. This form of energy transfer is how heat from the sun reaches Earth.
Everything that has substance is matter. Heat doesn't have substance, so it is not matter. Therefore it is Non-Matter.

Conduction
This mode of thrermal energy transfer is called CNVECTION.

There are three ways to transfer heat energy (thermal energy); convection involves transferring matter, the other two methods (conduction, radiation) don't.

Thermal energy can be transferred by conduction from one piece of matter to another only if they are in direct contact with each other. Conduction involves the transfer of heat through direct molecular collisions between particles in contact, so the proximity of the two objects is essential for this type of energy transfer.
