Question: You drive a car on a winter day with the atmospheric air at 15C and you keep the outside front windshield surface temperature at +2C
You drive a car on a winter day with the atmospheric air at −15°C and you keep the outside front windshield surface temperature at +2°C by blowing hot air on the inside surface. If the windshield is 0.5 m2 and the outside convection coefficient is 250 W/m2K find the rate of energy loos through the front windshield. For that heat transfer rate and a 5 mm thick glass with k = 1.25 W/m K what is then the inside windshield surface temperature?
