Using appropriate software, plot the amount of heat loss through the glass as a function of the window glass thickness in the range of 0.1 cm to 1.0 cm. Discuss the results.

What will be an ideal response?


The amount of heat loss through the glass as a function of the window glass thickness is to be plotted.

Analysis The problem is solved using EES, and the solution is given below.



"GIVEN"

L=0.005 [m]

A=2*2 [m^2]

T_1=10 [C]

T_2=3 [C]

k=0.78 [W/m-C]

time=5*3600 [s]



"ANALYSIS"

Q_dot_cond=k*A*(T_1-T_2)/L

Q_cond=Q_dot_cond*time*Convert(J, kJ)
