You have installed a double pane storm window in your study in order to cut down on the thermal heat loss during the winter months. In the industry,they sell theinsulation panels according to the R-value, which is defined by; whereis thickness of panel and k the thermal conductivity. The double pane window with 1/2"air space is rated with a value of 0.359Km2/W.
The window is of dimension 16ft by 2.5ft.The inside temperature of the window is 70F while the outside temperature of the window is 50F.
How much heat is lost through the storm window per month ( in kwhunits )?(1 m =3.281 ft)
Give the answer in kwhunits, to 1 decimal place.
