A test was conducted to determine the venting characteristics of multiple-layer insulation (MLI). It involved forcing air through four samples of MLI components and measuring the pressure differences and flow rates. Results from this test have been used to create a mathematical model of the flow through the MLI components. This model is used in a companion paper to predict the results of a second test and the venting behavior of MLI on the Space Station.
