Right triangle to perpendicular rectangle with coincident base
Function F3D_37(W,L,D) returns the view factor between a right triangle and a perpendicular rectangle that share a base
Inputs:
W = height of rectangle [m] or [ft]
L = height of triangle [m] or [ft]
D = length of base [m] or [ft]
Example:
$UnitSystem SI Pa J K m
D=0.1 [m]
L=0.05 [m]
W=0.2 [m]
F=F3D_37(W,L,D)
{Solution: F=0.3531}
