If the stove temp is 600 F, I = 0.1714x10^-8(600+460)^4 = 2164 Btu/h-ft^2.
A 90% reflective shield would absorb about 10% of this, ie 216 Btu/h-ft^2.
The linearized radiation conductance R = 1/(4x0.1714x10^-8(70+460)^3x0.1)
= R9.8, with 2/3 airfilm conductances. Here's one equivalent circuit:

What are the shield and wall temps Ts and Tw?
It's just Ohm's law, with different units:
I = (142-70)/(1/3+9.8+2/3) = 6.7 Btu/h, so Tw = 70 + 6.7x2/3 = 74.4 F,
and Ts = 74.4 + 6.7x9.8 = 139.7.
