Book Synopsis Daylight Science and Daylighting Technology by : Richard Kittler
Download or read book Daylight Science and Daylighting Technology written by Richard Kittler and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2011-10-22 with total page 359 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sunlight profoundly influences the Earth's atmosphere and biosphere. Nature fuels the evolution of all living things, their visual systems, and the manner in which they adapt, accommodate, and habituate. Sun luminance measurements serve as data to calculate typical changes in the daily, monthly, and annual variability characteristics of daylight. Climate-based sky luminance patterns are used as models in predicting daylighting calculation and computer programs applied in architecture and building design. Historically, daylight science and daylighting technology has prioritized photometric methods of measurements, calculation, and graphical tools aimed at predicting or evaluating the daylighting of architectural design alternatives. However, due to a heightened awareness of general health and well-being, sunlight exposure and freedom from visual discomfort while undertaking visual tasks are now equally prioritized. Therefore, in order to assure optimal environmental quality, daylighting technology must be based on sound science. Daylight Science and Daylighting Technology, by Richard Kittler, Miroslav Kocifaj, and Stanislav Darula, sketches the entire evolution of daylight science from atmospheric science through apt visual workplace psychophysics.

Book Synopsis Effective Daylighting with High-Performance Facades by : Kyle Konis
Download or read book Effective Daylighting with High-Performance Facades written by Kyle Konis and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-05-09 with total page 269 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book explores advanced building-facade daylighting design practices based on diverse energy and human-factor performance metrics. It also defines effective daylighting by rethinking the simplified approach to glazing and facade systems to incorporate the local climate and the needs of building occupants as critical drivers of building performance, design solutions and technological innovation. It discusses state-of-the-art approaches in the context of simulation-based design workflows, innovative technologies and real project case studies, all targeting low and net-zero energy solutions that enhance occupant comfort. Readers benefit from a comprehensive approach that improves the feedback loop between design intent and performance in use. The book is intended for architects, lighting designers, facade engineers, manufacturers and building owners/operators, as well as advanced students.
Book Synopsis New Tools for the Evaluation of Daylighting Strategies and Technologies by :
Download or read book New Tools for the Evaluation of Daylighting Strategies and Technologies written by and published by . This book was released on 1998 with total page 8 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The use of daylight for the illumination of building interiors has the potential to enhance the quality of the environment while providing opportunities to save energy by replacing or supplementing electric lighting. Moreover, it has the potential to reduce heating and cooling loads, which offer additional energy saving opportunities as well as reductions in HVAC equipment sizing and cost. All of these benefits, however, assume proper use of daylighting strategies and technologies, whose performance depends on the context of their application. On the other hand, improper use can have significant negative effects on both comfort and energy requirements, such as increased glare and cooling loads. To ensure proper use, designers need design tools that model the dynamic nature of daylight and accurately predict performance with respect to a multitude of performance criteria, extending beyond comfort and energy to include aesthetics, cost, security, safety, etc.

Book Synopsis Sustainable Indoor Lighting by : Paola Sansoni
Download or read book Sustainable Indoor Lighting written by Paola Sansoni and published by Springer. This book was released on 2014-12-29 with total page 357 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Encompassing a thorough survey of the lighting techniques applied to internal illumination characterized by high efficiency, optimized color and architectural integration, a consolidated summary of the latest scientific, technical and architectural research is presented in order to give the reader an overview of the different themes with their interactions and mutual effects. This book describes light principles, methodologies and realisations for indoor illumination at low consumption. Power efficiency, color characteristics and architectural aspects are analyzed in terms of their practical application, with the interactions between scientific, technological and architectural features considered in order to supply a complete overview, which can be read both at technical level and at user level. Introducing photometric and radiometric quantities and laws, the book first discusses tests and measurements assessing lighting and color characteristics before examining in detail artificial light sources with particular attention paid to measures to reduce consumption and optimize efficiency. Key sources are illustrated with producers and suppliers with technical details and use specifications included. Serving to maximize reader insights into the use of sunlight – considering light transfer, application to indoor illumination and in particular to museum lighting – in the color rendering properties of light sources and the architectural aspects for natural indoor lighting, the final part of this boo collects other related but important elements including architectural issues, environmental integration and the possibility of changing the light color by introducing suitable coatings. The physiological effects of internal illumination quality on user comfort is discussed and several possibilities for energy saving using domotics are outlined.

Book Synopsis Daylight Glare in Offices by : Jan Wienold
Download or read book Daylight Glare in Offices written by Jan Wienold and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The influence of discomfort glare is often underestimated in daylighting design and in the use of buildings. Many façade solutions are intended to increase the amount of daylight penetrating the room and creating a glare free environment at the same time. But as soon as a planning process comes to the point to quantify the glare freeness of a solution, the question of suitable glare measure arises. To analyze the reliability of existing glare rating methods, user assessments under real daylight conditions in office like test rooms are designed and carried out at two sites using different Venetian blinds and a foil system. For the evaluation of high dynamic digital images, a new tool "evalglare" is developed. The existing glare rating models show moderate or poor correlations with the user's perception of glare. The window luminance as single glare descriptor exhibits no correlation at all. On the basis of the user assessments a new daylight glare rating - the daylight glare probability DGP - is developed and validated. The DGP describes the probability that a person is disturbed by daylight glare. The DGP is also used as a basic glare descriptor for new climate based glare evaluation methods, which enables an assessment of daylight glare for a full year data set within a design process. For the evaluation, a glare rating classification based on simulations and frequency distributions is proposed.
