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 .)
H.W1 Consider a person standing in a room. Determine the total rate of heat transfer from this person if the exposed surface area and temperature are 1.6m² and 29°C, respectively. Assume that the convection heat transfer coefficient is 6W/m².K and the emissivity of a person is 0.95. The air temperature in the room is maintained at 22°C at all times of the year. In summer, the wall and ceiling temperatures are observed to be 25°C, while in winter, they are 10°C. Ans: Qrotal =104.4 W In Summer Qrotal =231.3 W In Winter
