Radiation view factor confusion
Chicopee: Thanks... and I have attached a sketch in post 5 above. IRstuff: This video is also good, perhaps better than the more simplistic one I found but I don't see anything particularly new there that explains the document you and I both referenced. I think I more or less grasp the...- gahhhrrrlic

Radiation view factor confusion
I found that URL a while ago and was mulling over it yesterday. The closest approximation I could find was at the bottom of page 14 but they never say what "the enclosure" is and they only give you F13, not F31. Then I found this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9cTE7pdlnHg , which...- gahhhrrrlic

Radiation view factor confusion
IRSTUFF: I'm familiar with the piecewise differential approach but only in the conceptual sense of explaining view factor. I've never had to actually use it to integrate some arbitrary geometry. Usually the formulae are provided because of how math intensive it is to compute various common...- gahhhrrrlic

Radiation view factor confusion
So I have consulted multiple sources both in books and online regarding the various view factor geometries and their formulae but I've yet to find one where the outer shell of a hemisphere (convex surface facing up) is situated in the center of a square cavity and exposed to the inside surfaces...- gahhhrrrlic
