The specification and drawing disclose a heat pipe type of heat shield assembly comprising a double walled member positioned to extend between a high temperature area and a low temperature area and having a sealed inner-chamber. The outer face of one of the walls is adapted to face the high temperature area and wick material is positioned in engagement with the entire inner face of the other wall. A portion of the inner face of the wall exposed to the high temperature area is also covered with wick material and the remaining inner surface of the wall is bare. A partition member is positioned within the inner chamber. The partition member extends throughout the bare portion of the outer wall to reduce heat transfer by convection. Cooling fins are connected to the outer wall throughout at least the portion exposed to the lower temperature area.
