This report investigates major factors concerning windows in buildings and their effect on visual conditions, thermal conditions, and energy requirements. Empirically obtained data are presented for daylight illumination as a function of solar radiation, sky condition, window size and orientation, and interior reflectance. The thermal and visual effects of several window management strategies are examined along with an analysis of automatic lighting controls. Daylight utilization is seen to offer great potential for minimizing lighting load in perimeter building areas, and careful determination of lighting needs and window management strategies can provide additional benefit.
