1. A 140 mm thick wall of 5 m x 3 m size is made of red brick (k = 0.6 W/m-K). It is covered on both sides by layers of plaster, 2 cm thick (k = 0.71 W/m-K). The wall has a double pane window size of 120 cm x 120 cm. The double pane window consists of 2 sheets of glass 6 mm thick (k = 0.96 W/m-K) separated by 138.8 mm thick air gap (k = 0.025 W/m- K). If the inner and outer surface temperatures are 18°C and 37°C, determine the total rate of heat transfer (W) through the composite wall and glass window. Express your final answer in five significant figures.

Question
1. A 140 mm thick wall of 5 m x 3 m size is made of red brick (k = 0.6 W/m-K). It is covered
on both sides by layers of plaster, 2 cm thick (k = 0.71 W/m-K). The wall has a double
pane window size of 120 cm x 120 cm. The double pane window consists of 2 sheets of
glass 6 mm thick (k = 0.96 W/m-K) separated by 138.8 mm thick air gap (k = 0.025 W/m-
K). If the inner and outer surface temperatures are 18°C and 37°C, determine the total
rate of heat transfer (W) through the composite wall and glass window. Express your final
answer in five significant figures.
