Question 2: You are supposed to order a double-wall glass window for your new lab. The doublewall is 0.7-m-high and 1.5-m-wide and it consists of two 4-mm-thick layers of glass )=(0.78Wm*C which is separated by stagnant air space )=(0.026Wm*C. The desired maximum heat loss is 70W where the inner surface should be at 20C while the outer surface is at -15C. Please determine the thickness of the stagnant air space needed to not lose more than 70W of heat. The convection heat transfer coefficients on the inner and outer surfaces of the window are as follows: h1=10Wm2,C and h2=40Wm2*C. Please draw a sketch for the question. (Assume steady-state heat transfer and please ignore radiation).
