Uniformity ratio and artificial light requirement calculations used in the paper The Role of Light Shelf and Window Size on Daylight Performance of an Architecture Studio

The files present the uniformity ratio and artificial light requirement of an educational building in İzmir, Turkey. The results of this paper are published in the International Journal of Digital Innovation in the Built Environment. <br> Kindly see the abstract below to find out more: <br> Daylight affects our health and comfort. Recently, occupants have faced thermal and visual comfort problems due to a lack of solar control elements and wrong design decisions of glazed surfaces. Recent studies show that solar control systems and window-based variables are among the most significant variables that influence daylight performance. This study tests various combinations of window sizes and light shelf scenarios for a uniform distribution of daylight and visual comfort of occupants in two architecture studios in the İzmir Institute of Technology (IZTECH) Campus. In scenarios, window size and location, exterior and interior light shelves' height, incline angle, and materials are tested. It is concluded that variables significantly improved the uniform distribution of daylight of both studios and sun patch areas of the south/east-oriented studio. Also, the artificial light requirement of the south/west-oriented studio is improved by 29.36% and 31.75% for the 21st of June and December, respectively. <br> Feel free to contact me in case of any unclarity, inquiries, or collaborations.

天然采光关乎人类健康与舒适度。近年来，由于缺乏遮阳控光构件以及玻璃围护结构设计决策失当，建筑使用者正面临热舒适与视觉舒适方面的问题。已有研究表明，遮阳控光系统与基于窗户的设计参数是影响天然采光性能的核心影响因素之一。本研究针对伊兹密尔理工学院（IZTECH）校区内两间建筑设计工作室的空间，测试了多种窗户尺寸与采光搁板（light shelf）方案的组合，以优化天然采光均匀分布并提升建筑使用者的视觉舒适度。本次测试涵盖的参数包括窗户尺寸与位置、内外侧采光搁板的高度、倾斜角度及材质。研究结果表明，上述参数可显著改善两间工作室的天然采光均匀度，同时优化了朝向南/东的工作室的阳光直射光斑区域分布。此外，朝向南/西的工作室的人工照明需求，在6月21日与12月21日分别降低了29.36%与31.75%。
