(Q3) sk) - A 5mx7m wall consists of 3 glass windows of 1.5mx1.5m dimensions. The wall has thickness of 0.125 m and a thermal conductivity of 0.5 W/m.K, while the glass windows are 6 mm thick with a thermal conductivity of 1:24 W/m.K. The values of internal and external surface conductance for the wall (including glass) are 8.1W/m2 K and 34.2 W/m² K, respectively. The internal and external temperatures are 20°C and -30°C, respectively. Calculate the total heat transfer rate through the wall. What percentage of this heat transfer is through the windows?
