The energy lost by the electrons will be converted into heat energy as according to the law of conservation of energy, energy can neither be destroyed nor created

According to your question of the electron progressively loses an amount of energy then the atomic radius of the motion of the electron will be affected.

The atomic radius of the electron is slowly and gradually reduced which theoritically will result in the colliding of the electron with the atom nucleus so that there will be a huge colliding which doesn't happen in actual. Hence the theory is false and electron don't collide with the nucleus.
