Special Topic: Heat Transfer through Windows
9-120C Windows are considered in three regions when analyzing heat transfer through them because the structure and
properties of the frame are quite different than those of the glazing. As a result, heat transfer through the frame and the edge
section of the glazing adjacent to the frame is two-dimensional. Even in the absence of solar radiation and air infiltration, heat
transfer through the windows is more complicated than it appears to be. Therefore, it is customary to consider the windows in
heat transfer through the window will be a minimum for the window with 10-mm air gab, as can be seen from Fig. 9-37.
9-122C In an ordinary double pane window, about half of the heat transfer is by radiation. A practical way of reducing the

9-131E The R-value of the common double door windows that are double pane with 1/4-in of air space and have aluminum
frames is to be compared to the R-value of R-13 wall. It is also to be determined if more heat is transferred through the
windows or the walls.
Assumptions 1 Steady operating conditions exist. 2 Heat transfer through the window is one-dimensional. 3 Thermal
properties of the windows and the heat transfer coefficients are constant. 4 Infiltration heat losses are not considered.
Properties The U-factor of the window is given in Table 9-6 to be
4.550.176 = 0.801 Btu/h.ft2.F.
Analysis The R-value of the windows is simply the inverse of its U-factor,

9-132 The rate of heat loss through a double-door wood framed window and the inner surface temperature are to be
determined for the cases of single pane, double pane, and low-e triple pane windows.
Assumptions 1 Steady operating conditions exist. 2 Heat transfer through the window is one-dimensional. 3 Thermal
properties of the windows and the heat transfer coefficients are constant. 4 Infiltration heat losses are not considered.
Properties The U-factors of the windows are given in Table 9-6.

Discussion Note that heat loss through the window will be reduced by 49 percent in the case of double glazing and by 74
percent in the case of triple glazing relative to the single glazing case. Also, in the case of single glazing, the low inner glass
surface temperature will cause considerable discomfort in the occupants because of the excessive heat loss from the body by
radiation. It is raised from 1.2C to 10.3C in the case of double glazing and to 15.1C in the case of triple glazing.
