Two walls of a hexagonal prism once removed from each other

 

 

Function F3D_50(l,h) returns the view factor between two  walls of a hexagonal prism  once removed from each other, as shown in the figure..

 

Inputs:

l = edge of prism [m] or [ft]

h = height of wall [m] or [ft]

 

Example: 

$UnitSystem SI Pa J K m radian

l=0.1 [m]

h=0.5 [m]

F=F3D_50(l,h)

{Solution: F=0.1888}
