Methods of calculating view factors with different surface configurations are compared. A simple approach is proposed for estimating the error in calculating the view factors. An algorithm is formulated for selection of the method and the number of points of integration prior to the calculation. The algorithm significantly reduces the computation time by minimizing the number of integration points required, without loss of precision.
