SF_11




Function SF_11 provides the shape factor ([m] or [ft]) for conduction between the inner and outer surfaces of a circular rod with an eccentric circular hole.

Inputs:
d_in = diameter of eccentric inner cylinder ([m] or [ft])
D_out = diameter of bounding cylinder ([m] or [ft])
w = distance between cylindrical axes ([m] or [ft])
L = length of tube

Example:  SF =  SF_11(d_in, D_out, w, L)
