Something about Radiation Cooling

The physics used in my application are Heat Transfer in Solids. And the geometry is just a cylinder representing the electrode. I select the check box before the "Surface to Surface Radiation" in the settings of Heat Transfer in Solids. In the exterior radiation, I chose "exterior is transparent". And I set all the outer boundaries as the "diffuse surface". In the settings of diffuse surface, the ambient temperature is set as 293.15K.
However, I am not sure whether the heat can be radiated to the environment.
Will the radiation happen between the cylinder electrode and the environment, or, the radiation only happens between those chosen diffuse surfaces?
If I want the electrode to radiate heat to the environment, what should i do to make that happen?
Thanks a lot!
