Radiant heaters will heat a space... they will heat whatever they are directed at , so surface get warm, and then transfer that heat to the surrounding air.

The air rises, cooler air takes its place, and a standard convection loop is established.

The nature of them is really that whatever is directly in front of them feels warmer more quickly than with the standard convection loop.
