Rectangular floor to a circular end wall segment
Function F3D_56(b,c,theta) returns the view factor between a rectangular floor and an endwall that is a circular segment.
Inputs:
b = half-width of floor [m] or [ft]
c = length of floor [m] or [ft]
theta = angle between floor and center of end wall [degree] or [radian]
Example:
$UnitSystem SI Mass J K Pa Degree
b=1 [m]
c=1 [m]
theta=50 [degree]
F=F3D_56(b,c,theta)
{Solution: F=0.1009}
