. Electrically heated automobile rear window defoggers utilize a thin transparent film-type heating element attached to the inner surface of the window. As shown below, the window glass is 4 mm thick and the inner surface of the window is maintained at 15 °C (Tinner). The total surface area of the window is 1 m². Both sides of the window experience convective heat transfer with the properties shown below. The thermal conductivity of the glass is 1.4 W/m-K. Assume that the thickness of the heating film is negligible. a) Construct the thermal circuit representing the steady state heat transfer for the system. Label all nodes, resistances and relevant terms. b) Determine the (electrical) power (in Watts) to maintain the conditions given. 4 mm A=1m² Tinner 11 Too2 = -10 °C h = 65 W/m²-K Outer Window Glass Heater T∞01 = 25 °C h = 10 W/m²-K Inner
