Assignment 2 - Numericals

The document calculates the steady rate of heat transfer through a 0.8m x 1.5m glass window with a thermal conductivity of 0.78 W/m-°C and the temperature of its inner surface. It first calculates the total thermal resistance of the window and then uses this to determine the heat transfer rate of 100W. It then uses this heat transfer rate and the thermal resistance at the inner surface to calculate the inner surface temperature of 11.7°C.

1. Consider a 0.8 m high and 1.

5 m wide glass window, shown below with a thermal conductivity of k


=0.78 W/m·°C. Determine the steady rate of heat transfer through this glass window and the temperature
of its inner surface

Rtotal = 1/h1A + L/KA + 1/h2A (°C/W)


Rtotal = 1/(10*0.8*1.5) + 0.016/(0.78*0.8*1.5) + 1/(40*0.8*1.5) (°C/W)
Rtotal = 0.083+0.017+0.2 (°C/W)
Rtotal = 0.3 (°C/W)

Qconv= (T∞1-T∞2)/ Rtotal (W)


Qconv= [20-(-10)]/0.3 (W)
Qconv=30/0.3 (W)
Qconv=100 (W)

Qconv= (T∞1-T1)/ (1/h1A)


100= (20- T1)/0.083
20- T1=100*0.083
- T1=8.3-20 (°C)
T1=11.7 (°C)
