The Energy Saving Potential in an Office Building Using Louvers in Mid-Latitude Climate Conditions
Daylighting has emerged as a prominent strategy for elevating indoor environments by harmonizing visual comfort and energy efficiency. This paper introduces a louver system crafted for energy simulations, specifically tailored to address lighting and cooling requirements in office spaces. Louvers, acknowledged for their exceptional efficiency in providing daylight, are integrated as a pivotal energy-saving technique. Adopting a quantitative research approach facilitated by building information simulation tools, DIALUX evo and Rhino were employed for modeling and simulating the building’s daylighting performances. The simulation outcomes reveal substantial energy savings, particularly in the realms of lighting and cooling. Notably, a 50% louver opening in office spaces results in an impressive 27.0% reduction in energy consumption. The study explores various louver configurations, providing insights into both lighting and cooling energy savings. The overall system performance excels in sustaining consistent daylight, significantly contributing to enhanced energy efficiency.
