Rectangular floor to a rectangular endwall with a 45º triangular extension
Function F3D_48(a,b,c) returns the view factor between a rectangular floor and a rectangular endwall with 45º triangular extensions.
Inputs:
a = height of endwall [m] or [ft]
b = half-width of floor [m] or [ft]
c = length of floor [m] or [ft]
Example:
$UnitSystem SI Pa J K m radian
a=0.1 [m]
b=0.1 [m]
c=0.2 [m]
F=F3D_48(a,b,c)
{Solution: F=0.1857}
