The general energy balanced equation is given in the attach image

for all interior nodes of the glass cover discretized equation:
For i=2, 3, 4… Nx-1
j=4
attach as image.

how would the finite difference equation at i=1 and i=N for glass i.e. at j=4 look like? the complete control volume diagram is attached.

The spam flag rules are not well explained that I know of, probably because they don't want spammers to know how to get around their filters. I can understand that. Honestly, I rarely see responses mis-flagged as spam, so I would not worry too much. When it happens, one of us will wander through, and remove such misplaced flags anyway. For posts that really are clearly spam, I will notify the site admin, and they will typically delete the offending account. The site has been pretty good though, with little true spam getting through, so they have things well in hand.

Your equation is a first-order PDE with only a convection, but no conduction term in it. Thus you cannot prescribe insulated boundaries. The only applicable conditions for this kind of equation are Dirichlet and extrapolation boundary conditions.
Furthermore, to discretize the spatial derivative term dT/dx, never use centered differences schemes, but only upwind schemes.
Best wishes
Torsten.
