Useful daylight illuminance: a new paradigm for assessing daylight in buildings

Azza Nabil, John Mardaljevic · 17 Feb 2005

This paper introduces a new paradigm to assess daylight in buildings called ‘useful daylight illuminance’, or UDI. The UDI paradigm preserves much of the interpretive simplicity of the conventional daylight factor approach. In contrast to daylight factors however, UDI is founded on an annual time-series of absolute values for illuminance predicted under realistic skies generated…

Daylight metrics and energy savings

John Mardaljevic, Lisa Heschong, Eleanor S. Lee · 1 Sep 2009

The drive towards sustainable, low-energy buildings has increased the need for simple, yet accurate methods to evaluate whether a ‘daylit’ building meets minimum standards for energy and human comfort performance. Current metrics do not account for the temporal and spatial aspects of daylight, nor of occupants comfort or interventions. This paper reviews the historical basis…

Monitoring manual control of electric lighting and blinds

Christoph Reinhart, Karsten Voss · 1 Sep 2003

This paper reviews, validates and extends present knowledge of the degree and kind of manual control strategies of blinds and electric lighting systems that are used in private and two-person offices. A new monitoring setup was applied from March to December 2000 in 10 daylit offices in Germany that featured manually operated electric lighting and…

Lighting for work: a review of visual and biological effects

Wjm Van Bommel, GJ van den Beld · 1 Dec 2004

With the detection in 2002 of a novel photoreceptor cell in the eye, the biological effects that light has can be better understood. From the research on the biological effects of lighting, it is evident that the rules governing the design of good and healthy lighting installations are, to a certain degree, different from the…

Evaluation of high dynamic range photography as a luminance data acquisition system

Mehlika Inanici · 23 Apr 2006

In this paper, the potential, limitations and applicability of the High Dynamic Range (HDR) photography technique are evaluated as a luminance mapping tool. Multiple exposure photographs of static scenes were taken with a commercially available digital camera to capture the wide luminance variation within the scenes. The camera response function was computationally derived by using…
