A car's rear window is defogged by the passage of hot air over its inner surface. If the hot air is at T∞, i = 40 °C and the corresponding convection heat transfer coefficient is hi = 30 W/(m²K), what are the temperatures of the inner and outer surfaces of the glass, which has 4 mm thick, if the outdoor ambient air temperature for T∞, e = −10 °C and the associated convective coefficient for he = 65 W/(m²K)?
