In a new residential project, you strongly believe thatdouble-paned windows are ‘better’ than single-paned windows.Compare the rate of heat loss between single and double-panedwindows (1.5 m x 1 m) if the thickness of each pane is (th = 0.4 cm)and (k = 0.9 W/m.K). The indoor and outdoor temperatures are 18°C and 2 °C, respectively. Thickness of the air gap between thedouble-paned windows is (th = 1 cm), and (k = 0.022 W/m.K).Image credit: Windowwhirl.
