F2D_13

Two infinitely long plates of unequal width having a common edge with an included angle

Function f2d_13 returns the view factor between two infinitely long plates of unequal width having a common edge with an included angle alpha.

The input variables are:
b = the area per unit width into the screen of plate 1 [m or ft]
a = the area per unit width into the screen of plate 2 [m or ft]
alpha = the included angle [degrees or radians]

Example: F=f2d_13(b, a, alpha)
