A heat shield includes an inner portion, an outer portion, first and second insulating
portions, and a deflecting portion. The inner portion includes a reflective material
to reflect thermal energy that radiates from a heat/acoustic source. The outer
portion includes a rigid material to provide structural support for the heat shield.
The first and second insulating portions are intermediately positioned between
the inner and outer portions. The deflecting portion is intermediately positioned
between the first and second insulating portions to deflect acoustics from the
heat/acoustic source. A method for manufacturing the heat shield is also disclosed.
