In which one of the following, Heat transfer takes place without any Conduction or Convection?

In which one of the following, Heat transfer takes place without any Conduction or Convection? Correct Answer Cooling tower

In a cooling tower, heat transfer takes place by evaporation which carries away the thermal energy from the liquid in the form of vapour hence cooling it, no instance of conduction or convection is observed.
