Calculate the r value of thickness of still air

Reference no: EM131019152

According to a standard reference table, the R value of a 3.5inch-thick vertical air space (within a wall) is 1.0 (in English units), while the R value of a 3.5-inch thickness of fiberglass batting is 10.9. Calculate theR value of a 3.5-inch thickness of still air, then discuss whether these two numbers are reasonable. (Hint: These reference values include the effects of convection.)
