through a flat composite wall given by the EQUATION Q3. State any assumptions. Q=A \frac{T_{1}-T_{2}}{\frac{x}{k}} A window 1.0 m wide by 2.0 m high originally contained a single pane of glass 5 mm thick. It is proposed to install double glazing consisting of two sheets of glass separated by a stagnant air gap 10 mm thick at a cost of £450. If heating costs 4.0p per kWh, using a proper form EQUATION Q3, estimate the time taken to recover the cost of double glazing when the temperature difference between inside and outside surfaces of the glass window is 15°C.
