Sky luminance research imperative for adequate control of temporary supplementary artificial lighting installations
AbstractThe energy consumption in Dutch office buildings can be cut considerably if daylight is used as task lighting. A conservative estimate gives a potential saving of 46% on the electricity costs for artificial lighting.The problem of photo-electric control of artificial lighting supplementing the daylight illumination and correctly estimating its energy effectiveness, will require a more accurate prediction of the indoor daylight illuminance at points in the working area.An advanced instrument for measuring sky luminance has been built. Analysis of sky-luminance patterns simultaneously with indoor illuminances will give an algorithm for daylight-controlled artificial lighting systems.
