Question
A picture window has dimensions of 1.7 m
by 2.25 m and is made of glass 4.75 mm
thick. On a winter day, the outside
temperature is 25.5° C while the inside
temperature is a comfortable at 19° C. (k of
glass =0.075W/m.K)
Calculate the following:
a) the area of the window in square
metres
b) the temperature gradient (AT/Ax)in
kelvin/metre
b) the rate of heat lost through the
window by conduction in
watts/metre.kelvin
