Default Cold Radiation

In article ,

Exactly, if the radiation a body receives is from a cooler body, then the first body will cool. So it is possible to cool a body with radiation, and it only makes sense to call it cold radiation.


No. As a visualisation, it does sort of work, but it isn't an accurate
representation of what is actually going on. It is thus not sense to use
it.

You wouldn't call the water going into a bucket, drippy water, and the
water coming out it, leaky water, and then try and claim that drippy
water and leaky water are somehow different types of water.
