1. Consider a 0.8 m high and 1.

5 m wide glass window, shown below with a thermal conductivity of k


=0.78 W/m·°C. Determine the steady rate of heat transfer through this glass window and the temperature
of its inner surface

Rtotal = 1/h1A + L/KA + 1/h2A (°C/W)


Rtotal = 1/(10*0.8*1.5) + 0.016/(0.78*0.8*1.5) + 1/(40*0.8*1.5) (°C/W)
Rtotal = 0.083+0.017+0.2 (°C/W)
Rtotal = 0.3 (°C/W)

Qconv= (T∞1-T∞2)/ Rtotal (W)


Qconv= [20-(-10)]/0.3 (W)
Qconv=30/0.3 (W)
Qconv=100 (W)

Qconv= (T∞1-T1)/ (1/h1A)


100= (20- T1)/0.083
20- T1=100*0.083
- T1=8.3-20 (°C)
T1=11.7 (°C)
