Radiation emerges from each surface and reflects back and forth depositing energy onto each surface with each reflection.

The results are given for four different cases. One corresponds to the case of no transmission through the metalized layer. The remaining three allow transmission corresponding to metalized film thicknesses of 35 nm, 60 nm, and 100 nm per layer side.

Thermal Sci. Eng. Appl. 2015;7(2):021007-021007-7. doi:10.1115/1.4028570 Figure Legend: This graph shows the power density ratio versus the hot side temperature for metalized film thicknesses of 35 nm, 60 nm, and 100 nm per side. In each case, a single layer of metalized insulation is located between a cold surface at 4 K and a hot surface with varying temperature. The power density ratio is computed by taking the power transfer for each metalized film thickness and dividing by the power transfer for the ideal case of no transmission.

The results are given for four different cases. One corresponds to the case of no transmission through the metalized layer. The remaining three allow transmission corresponding to metalized film thicknesses of 35 nm, 60 nm, and 100 nm per layer side.
