Question
A thermal window consisting of two panes of 0.25"
glass (R-value 0.08 hr · ft2. °F/BTU each), separated
by a layer of air 0.75" thick is now used as a
horizontal window in the ceiling (a skylight) of an air
conditioned room. Find its R-value in the summer,
when the outside is warmer than the inside, and in
the winter, when the inside is warmer than the
outside (in hr . ft2. °F/BTU). (Assume that the air is
moving outside the window.)
R (summer)
hr · ft2. °F/BTU
R (winter)
hr : ft2 . °F/BTU
