Inner Surface of a Right Circular Cylinder to Itself

Function F3D_18(r, h) returns the view factor between the inner surface of a right circular cylinder (surface 1) and itself.

Inputs:

r = radius of the cylinder [m or ft]

h = height of the cylinder [m or ft]

Example: 

$UnitSystem SI K Pa J rad

r=1 [m]

h=0.5 [m]

F=F3D_18(r, h)

{Solution: F=0.2192}
