We explore that two ferromagnetic insulator slabs host a strong twist-induced near-field radiative heat transfer in the presence of twisted magnetic fields. Using the formalism of fluctuational electrodynamics, we find the existence of large twist-induced thermal switch ratio in large damping condition and nonmonotonic twist manipulation for heat transfer in small damping condition, associated with the different twist-induced effects of nonreciprocal elliptic surface magnon-polaritons, hyperbolic surface magnon-polaritons, and twist-non-resonant surface magnon-polaritons. Moreover, the near-field radiative heat transfer can be significantly enhanced by the twist-non-resonant surface magnon-polaritons in the ultra-small damping condition. Such twist-induced effect is applicable for other kinds of anisotropic slabs with timereversal symmetry breaking. Our findings provide a way to twisted and magnetic control in nanoscale thermal management and improve it with twistronics concepts.
