Consider a double-paned window consisting of two panes of glass, each with a thickness of 0.500 cm and an area of 0.795 m2 , separated by a layer of air with a thickness of 1.50 cm. The temperature on one side of the window is 0.00 ∘C∘C; the temperature on the other side is 21.0 ∘C∘C. In addition, note that the thermal conductivity of glass is roughly 36 times greater than that of air. Approximate the heat transfer through this window by ignoring the glass. That is, calculate the heat flow per second through 1.50 cmcm of air with a temperature difference of 21.0 ∘C∘C. (The exact result for the complete window is 25.6 J/sJ/s .)

Question

Consider a double-paned window consisting of two panes of glass, each with a thickness of 0.500 cm and an area of 0.795 m2 , separated by a layer of air with a thickness of 1.50 cm. The temperature on one side of the window is 0.00 ∘C∘C; the temperature on the other side is 21.0 ∘C∘C. In addition, note that the thermal conductivity of glass is roughly 36 times greater than that of air.

Approximate the heat transfer through this window by ignoring the glass. That is, calculate the heat flow per second through 1.50 cmcm of air with a temperature difference of 21.0 ∘C∘C. (The exact result for the complete window is 25.6 J/sJ/s .)
