Question:
The rear window of an automobile is defogged by passing warm air over its inner surface.
(a) If the warm air is at T∞,i = 40°C and the corresponding convection coefficient is hi = 30 W/m2 ∙ K, what are the inner and outer surface temperatures of 4-mm-thick window glass, if the outside ambient air temperature is T∞,0 = - 10°C and the associated convection coefficient is ho = 65 W/m 2 . K?
(b) In practice T∞,0 and ho vary according to weather conditions and car speed. For values of ho = 2, 65, and 100 W/m2.∙ K, compute and plot the inner and outer surface temperatures as a function of T∞,0 for – 30 ≤ T∞,0 ≤ O°C.
