Parallel regular hexagons

 

 

Function F3D_54(l,h) returns the view factor between parallel regular hexagons.

 

Inputs:

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

h = distance between the hexagons [m] or [ft]

 

Example: 

$UnitSystem SI Pa J K m radian

h=0.25 [m]

l=0.5 [m]

F=F3D_54(l,h)

{Solution: F=0.5671}
