Heat radiates equally in all directions, as the sun does. The reason we think heat rises is beacuse hot air 'floats' on cold air, because hot air is thinner than cold air. That's why a hot air ballon floats just like an ice cubes (less dense because of expansion) floats on water. It is because of density differences not temperature difference. Otherwise if heat were to rise, then why does colder ice rise?
