Introduction Aluminum reflectors play a key role in gas tube heaters. Their ability to reflect heat directly affects performance and energy efficiency. Reflectivity measures how much radiant heat bounces off a surface, and this depends on the reflector’s finish. For example, highly polished aluminum reflectors reflect 60% to 90% of heat, whereas mill finish reflectors […]
