Compute the ratio of the rate of heat loss through a single-panewindow with area 0.15 m2m2 to that for a double-panewindow with the same area. The glass of a single pane is4.4 mmmm thick, and the air space between the two panesof the double-pane window is 7.30 mmmm thick. The glasshas thermal conductivity 0.80 W/m⋅KW/m⋅K. The air films on theroom and outdoor surfaces of either window have a combined thermalresistance of 0.15 m2⋅K/Wm2⋅K/W.
