Outer surface of a small cylinder to the inner surface of a large cylinder when the small cylinder extends beyond the large cylinder on one end

 

 

Function F3D_25(x,y,l,r1,r2) returns the view factor between the outer surface of a small cylinder to the inner surface of a large cylinder when the small cylinder extends beyond the large cylinder on one end.

 

Inputs:

x = distance that small cylinder extends on the left [m or ft]

y = length of large cylinder [m or ft]

l  = length of small cylinder [m or ft]

r1 = radius of the smaller cylinder [m or ft]

r2 = radius of the larger cylinder [m or ft]

 

Example: 

$UnitSystem SI K Pa J deg

x=0.1 [m]

y=0.2 [m]

l=0.1 [m]

r1=0.05 [m]

r2=0.1 [m]

F = F3D_25(x,y,l,r1,r2)

 

{Solution: F=0.1603}
