Consider the rate of heat conduction through a double-paned window that has a 1.6-m2 area and is made of two panes of 0.76-cm-thick glass separated by a 0.75-cm air gap. You can ignore the increased heat transfer in the air gap due to convection.   a. Calculate the rate of heat conduction through this window, in watts, given that the inside surface temperature is 15.0°C, while the outside temperature is -10.0°C. Make the assumption that the temperature differences across the two glass planes are equal. First find these and then the temperature drop across the air gap.    b. For comparison, calculate the rate of heat conduction, in watts, through a single 1.67-cm-thick window of the same area and with the same temperatures as in part (a).

Conduction and Convection

When energy travels from one object to another it is said to have undergone heat transfer. Heat transfer is nothing but the transfer of thermal energy or internal energy from one thing to another, like e.g., when a vessel with water, kept on top of a burner, heats up because of the flame underneath it.
