Disk to second coaxial disk within a cone

 

 

Function F3D_59(e,x,theta) returns the view factor between a circular disk and a second disk within a cone

 

Inputs:

e = distance from center of cone to disk 1 [m] or [ft]

x = distance from center of cone to disk 2 [m] or [ft]

theta = angle of cone [degree] or [radian]

 

Example: 

$UnitSystem SI Mass J K Pa Radian

x=0.5 [m] 

e=0.2 [m]

theta=30 [Degree]*convert(degree,rad)

F=F3D_59(e,x,theta)

{F = 0.1627}
