Blocking Radiation
(OP)
Hi, I am making a heat shield to block unwanted waste heat from radiation. It is for an aluminum casting process. The shield is currently a sandwich of stainless steel plates with insulation board in between. Does anyone know anything else I can alter on the shield to help reflect/block the radiation? So far I've been thinking about surface finish.
Thanks!
Thanks!

Most thermal radiation heat transfer textbooks include a section on designing and analyzing heat shields. The effect of modifying the surface emmissivity is a standard deisng parameter.

I would talk with the people a ZPY about both approaches.
