Consider a 1.2 m high and 2 m wide double pane window consisting of two 3 mm-thick layers of glass (k=0.78 W/m.C) separated by a 12 mm wide space. The space is evacuated. Determine the steady rate of heat transfer through this double-pane window and the temperature of its inner surface for a day during which the room is maintained at 24 C while the temperature of the outdoors is -5 C. Take the convection heat transfer coefficients on the inner and outer surfaces of the window to be h1=10 W/m2. C and h2=25 W/m2.C.(203 W,15.5 C).
