A store building has five show rooms on one side each with a large glass window of 5 m long and 3.5 m high. The glass is 10 mm thick and has an effective thermal conductivity of 1.4 W/m-K. Consider conditions for which the ambient air is in parallel flow over the outer surface of the glass window with us. = 5 m/s and Tair = -20C. The outside wall temperature Tw may be assumed to be the same as the air temperature since the wall is well insulated. The room air temperature is maintained at Troom = 25C, and the inside convection coefficient is h; = 5 W/mK. The thermophysical properties of air may be assumed to be constant within the temperature range of interest (Air: v= 12.6 x 10 m/s, k=0.023 W/m-K, Pr=0.71). T.

(Ans. q = 2611.3 W) e) Determine the outer surface temperature at the midpoint of the glass window. (Ans. To = -5.9C) A store building has five show rooms on one side each with a large glass window of 5 m long and 3.5 m high.
