Figure 8
(a) Cross section of a junction between three honeycomb faces, each of thickness t, inclined at different angles to each other, with the darkened areas showing the surplus regions [e.g. P1 = t2/4 tan (90° − α1/2) etc.] where wax is saved. (b) Diagram showing the surplus area P at an edge formed by two honeycomb faces, in relation to the dihedral angle α between these faces. The values of P are plotted as fractions of t2. |
