Finite parallel plates
Function f3d_1(a, b, c) returns the view factor between two identical opposite rectangular plates.
Inputs:
a and b are the dimensions of the rectangles [m or ft]
c is the distance between them [m or ft]
Example:
$UnitSystem SI K Pa J deg
a=1 [m]
b=1.5 [m]
c=0.5 [m]
F=f3d_1(a, b, c)
{Solution: F=0.4756 }
