Chapter 21, Problem 43P

(choose chapter or problem)

(III) A double-glazed window has two panes of glass separated by an air space, Fig.  Show that the rate of heat flow through such a window by conduction is given by

\(\frac{Q}{t}=\frac{A\left(T_{2}-T_{1}\right)}{l_{1} / k_{1}+l_{2} / k_{2}+l_{3} / k_{3}}\)

where \(k_{1}, k_{2}, \text { and } k_{3}\) are the thermal conductivities for glass, air, and glass, respectively. (b) Generalize this expression for any number of materials placed next to one another.
