  There have been many proposed explanations for the larger-than-expected radii
of some transiting hot Jupiters, including either stellar or orbital energy
deposition deep in the atmosphere or deep in the interior. In this paper, we
explore the important influences on hot-Jupiter radius evolution of (i)
additional heat sources in the high atmosphere, the deep atmosphere, and deep
in the convective interior; (ii) consistent cooling of the deep interior
through the planetary dayside, nightside, and poles; (iii) the degree of heat
redistribution to the nightside; and (iv) the presence of an upper atmosphere
absorber inferred to produce anomalously hot upper atmospheres and inversions
in some close-in giant planets. In particular, we compare the radius expansion
effects of atmospheric and deep-interior heating at the same power levels and
derive the power required to achieve a given radius increase when night-side
cooling is incorporated. We find that models that include consistent day/night
cooling are more similar to isotropically irradiated models when there is more
heat redistributed from the dayside to the nightside. In addition, we consider
the efficacy of ohmic heating in the atmosphere and/or convective interior in
inflating hot Jupiters. Among our conclusions are that (i) the most highly
irradiated planets cannot stably have uB > (10 km/s Gauss) over a large
fraction of their daysides, where u is the zonal wind speed and B is the
dipolar magnetic field strength in the atmosphere, and (ii) that ohmic heating
cannot in and of itself lead to a runaway in planet radius.
