Fig. 4.

Top: value of view factor F21 as a function of Ns (Eq. (9)) for a case when one facet is inclined at 45° (the case B) in Fig. 2). The different curves correspond to different methods as labeled. (Bottom) Relative deviation from M4. As in the previous case, even in this case the M3-Linear and M3-R2 methods remain accurate within 1% even for very low Ns values. However, the M3-R2 method does not asymptotically approach the reference value with increasing Ns in this setup. The M2 and M1 agreement shown in this figure is just a coincidence due to facet parameters.
