Question: Problem 1 ( 3 0 points ) ( a ) Calculate the convective, radiative and total heat transfer inside the window cavity and the center

Problem 1(30 points)
(a) Calculate the convective, radiative and total heat transfer inside the window cavity and the center-ofglass R -value for a double-glazed window, if the surface temperature of the interior glass is equal to \(20^{\circ}\mathrm{C}\) and the surface temperature of the exterior glass is equal to \(10^{\circ}\mathrm{C}\).
(b) Repeat the calculation for the case of low-emissivity coating on the outside surface of the interior glass (\(\varepsilon=0.1\)).
(c) What is the overall window thermal resistance and conductance if there is an aluminum frame with thermal break occupying \(10\%\) of the total area of the window (for both cases)?
Assume a total window area (including frame) equal to \(10\mathrm{~m}^{2}\) for this question. Exclude exterior convective/radiative film coefficients.
