Q2/ A thermopane window consists of two pieces of glass 7 mm thick that enclose an air space 7 mm thick.
The window separates room air at 20°C from outside ambient air at -10°C. The convection coefficient
associated with the inner (room-side) surface is 10 W/m².K. If the convection coefficient associated with the
outer (ambient) air is ho-80 W/mK, what is the heat loss through a window that is 0.8 m long by 0.5 m
wide? Neglect radiation, and assume the air enclosed between the panes to be stagnant. Take glass thermal
conductivity K-1.4 W/m.K, air thermal conductivity K,-0.0245 W/m.K
