THE THERMAL INSULATION VALUE OF METAL SHIELDS

McGuire, J.H., 1952. THE THERMAL INSULATION VALUE OF METAL SHIELDS. Fire Research Notes 4

Simple expressions are obtained for the temperatures of one or more metal shields surrounding simple surfaces maintained at a uniform temperature. The approximations involved render the results invalid if the lowest metal temperature is less than 90°C.
