F3D_19

Annular Ring on Cylinder Base or Top to Inside of Right Circular Cylinder

Function f3d_19(r_1, r_2, h) returns the view factor between an annular right at the base (or top) of a right circular cylinder (surface 1) to the inside surface of a cylinder (surface 2).

Inputs:
r_1 = inner radius of the annular ring [m or ft]
r_2 = radius of the cylinder [m or ft]
h = height of the cylinder [m or ft]

If r_1=0, use function f3d_17.

Example:
$UnitSystem SI K Pa J rad
r_1=0.1 [m]
r_2=0.2 [m]
h=0.5
F=f3d_19(r_1, r_2, h)

{Solution: F=0.8806}
