This formula uses 1 Constants, 1 Functions, 3 Variables

Constants Used

pi - Archimedes' constant Value Taken As 3.14159265358979323846264338327950288

Functions Used

ln - The natural logarithm, also known as the logarithm to the base e, is the inverse function of the natural exponential function., ln(Number)

Variables Used

Conduction Shape Factor - (Measured in Meter) - Conduction shape factor is defined as the value used to determine the heat transfer rate for the configurations which are very complex and require high calculation time.
Width of Plate - (Measured in Meter) - Width of plate is the measurement or extent from side to side.
Length of Plate - (Measured in Meter) - Length of Plate is the distance between two extreme points along one side of the base plate.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Width of Plate: 35.42548 Meter --> 35.42548 Meter No Conversion Required
Length of Plate: 0.05 Meter --> 0.05 Meter No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

S = (2*pi*W_plate)/ln((4*W_plate)/L_plate) --> (2*pi*35.42548)/ln((4*35.42548)/0.05)

Evaluating ... ...

S = 28.0000040604345

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

28.0000040604345 Meter --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

28.0000040604345 ≈ 28 Meter <-- Conduction Shape Factor
