CONFIGURATION FACTORS FOR EXCHANGE OF RADIANT ENERGY BETWEEN AXISYMMETRICAL SECTIONS OF CYLINDERS, CONES, AND HEMISPHERES AND THEIR BASES

Abstract

Radiation-interchange configuration factors are derived for axisymmetrical sections of cylinders, cones, and hemispheres radiating internally to annular and circular sections of their bases and to other axisymmetrical sections. The general procedure of obtaining configuration factors is outlined and the results are presented in the form of equations, tables, and figures. (Author)
