Ignoring convective heat transfer, estimate the change in U-factor by replacing argon by krypton in the quadruple
Question:
Ignoring convective heat transfer, estimate the change in U-factor by replacing argon by krypton in the quadruple glazed windows described in
Table 6.3.
You can ignore radiative heat transfer since these are low-emissivity windows.
