KNOWN: Various geometric shapes involving two areas A1 and A2.
FIND: Shape factors, F12 and F21, for each configuration.
ASSUMPTIONS: Surfaces are diffuse.
ANALYSIS: The analysis is not to make use of tables or charts. The approach involves use of the
reciprocity relation, Eq. 13.3, and summation rule, Eq. 13.4. Recognize that reciprocity applies to two
surfaces; summation applies to an enclosure. Certain shape factors will be identified by inspection.

COMMENTS: (1) Note that the summation rule is applied to an enclosure. To complete the
enclosure, it was necessary in several cases to define a third surface which was shown by dashed lines.
(2) Recognize that the solutions follow a systematic procedure; in many instances it is possible to
deduce a shape factor by inspection.
PROBLEM 13.2

the figure is somewhat uncertain.
PROBLEM 13.3
KNOWN: Two arrangements (a) circular disk and coaxial, ring shaped disk, and (b) circular disk and
coaxial, right-circular cone.
FIND: Derive expressions for the view factor F12 for the arrangements (a) and (b) in terms of the
areas A1 and A2, and any appropriate hypothetical surface area, as well as the view factor for coaxial
parallel disks (Table 13.2, Figure 13.5). For the disk-cone arrangement, sketch the variation of F12

KNOWN: Right circular cone and right-circular cylinder of same diameter D and length L positioned
coaxially a distance Lo from the circular disk A1; hypothetical area corresponding to the openings
identified as A3.
FIND: (a) Show that F21 = (A1/A2) F13 and F22 = 1 - (A3/A2), where F13 is the view factor between
two, coaxial parallel disks (Table 13.2), for both arrangements, (b) Calculate F21 and F22 for L = Lo =
50 mm and D1 = D3 = 50 mm; compare magnitudes and explain similarities and differences, and (c)
Magnitudes of F21 and F22 as L increases and all other parameters remain the same; sketch and explain
key features of their variation with L.
SCHEMATIC:
ASSUMPTIONS: (1) Diffuse surfaces with uniform radiosities, and (2) Inner base and lateral
surfaces of the cylinder treated as a single surface, A2.
ANALYSIS: (a) For both configurations,
F13 = F12
(1)
since the radiant power leaving A1 that is intercepted by A3 is likewise intercepted by A2. Applying
reciprocity between A1 and A2,
A1 F12 = A 2 F21

It follows that F21 is greater for the disk-cone (a) than for the cylinder-cone (b). That is, for (a),
surface A2 sees more of A1 and less of itself than for (b). Notice that F22 is greater for (b) than (a);
this is a consequence of A2,b > A2,a.
(c) Using the foregoing equations in the IHT workspace, the variation of the view factors F21 and F22
with L were calculated and are graphed below.

Note that for both configurations, when L = 0, find that F21 = F13 = 0.1716, the value obtained for
coaxial parallel disks. As L increases, find that F22 1; that is, the interior of both the cone and
cylinder see mostly each other. Notice that the changes in both F21 and F22 with increasing L are
greater for the disk-cylinder; F21 decreases while F22 increases.
COMMENTS: From the results of part (b), why isnt the sum of F21 and F22 equal to unity?

The same result can be found using view factor relations in Table 13.1. Since radiation traveling from 1
to 2 must pass through 3, F12 = F13. From Table 13.1, 2nd entry,
F12 = 1sin(30/2) = 0.741

method to cases where the view is obstructed between the two surfaces is discussed in Siegel, R., J.R.
Howell, and M.P. Menguc, Thermal Radiation Heat Transfer, 5th ed., CRC Press, Taylor & Francis
