Abstract:
Considering the magnitude of energy loss in building, development of energy saving methods appears to be essential. Daylight plays a significant role in designing energy efficient buildings and improving visual comfort for the occupants. Many daylight analysis methods have been developed in this area. Most of these methods focus on opening maximization. These methods unfortunately might reduce comfort since it causes direct solar glare. There is a need for a reliable lighting simulation model to control the lighting strategy in early stage design. This study proposes a strategy for visualizing daylight analysis of buildings by using Integrated Dynamic Model (IDM). IDM is a combination of design tools used during the conceptual phase for holistic classroom that considers the building’s energy usage, daylight distribution, and thermal indoor environment. The optimization focus is related maximize the performance of the building envelope design. The purpose of this paper are; firstly, providing a new strategy for visualizing the predicting daylight while respecting architectural integrity. The second purpose is to facilitate the designer for choosing window and envelope design alternatives during early stages. The third is to maximize the positive impacts of daylight. Lastly, hopefully IDM could present a simplified simulation and analyze method with the timely, accurate and efficient process.

Abstract:
Various emerging technologies encourage the embedding of intelligent and climate responsive behaviour into architectural elements. Light-shelves have been used for decades to enhance natural light in spaces, however, their static nature is limiting their overall performance potential. This paper explores the convergence of rapid prototyping, parametric design and environmental modelling software to create a dynamic and direct-reflection daylight redirection system that significantly enhances daylight availability. A Radiance-based simulation workflow to optimise and study the system is used and a 1:1 mock-up is developed. The mock-up is based on a horizontal-light shelf with an array of mirror tiles that can tilt in two axes based on sun position. The potential impact of such a system is then evaluated for a side lit office space in multiple climates in the northern hemisphere. Results show that daylight can be redirected deep into the building more effectively and therefore improve daylight availability for otherwise underlit floor plan regions. Projected savings for electric lighting range from 17% to 35% compared with a static redirection system.

Abstract:
The deposition of air pollutants on glazing can significantly affect the daylight transmittance of building fenestration systems in urban areas. This study presents a simulation analysis of the impact of air pollution and glazing visual transmittance on indoor daylight availability in an open-plan office in London. First, the direct links between glazing visual transmittance and daylighting conditions were developed and assessed. Second, several simple algorithms were established to estimate the loss of daylight availability due to the pollutant deposition at the external surface of vertical glazing. Finally, some conclusions and design strategies to support facade planning at the early design stage of an urban building project were developed.

Abstract:
Many recent studies in the field of the kinetic façade developed the grid-based modular forms through primary kinetic movements which are restricted in the simple shapes. However, learning from biological analogies reveals that plants and trees provide adjustable daylighting strategies by means of multilayered and curvature morphological changes. This research builds on a relevant literature study, observation, biomimicry morphological approach (top-down), and parametric daylighting simulation to develop a multilayered biomimetic kinetic façade form, inspired by tree morphology to improve occupants’ daylight performance. The first part of the research uses a literature review to explore how biomimicry influences the kinetic façade’s functions. Then, the study applies the biomimicry morphological approach to extract the formal strategies of tress due to dynamic daylight. Concerning functional convergence, the biomimicry principles are translated to the kinetic façade form configuration and movements. The extracted forms and movements are translated into the design solutions for the kinetic façade resulting in the flexible form by using intersected-multilayered skin and kinetic vectors with curvature movements. The comprehensive annual climate-based metrics and luminance-based metric simulation (625 alternatives) confirm the high performance of the bio-inspired complex kinetic façade for improving occupants’ daylight performance and preventing visual discomfort in comparison with the simple plain window as the base case. The kinetic façade provides daylight performance improvement, especially the best case achieves spatial Daylight Autonomy, Useful Daylight Illuminance, and Exceed Useful Daylight Illuminance of 50.6, 85.5, 7.55 respectively.

Abstract:
Daylighting presents an important role for high performance buildings. Currently, Building Information Modeling (BIM) has excelled in the Architecture and Engineering (A&E) industry as a collaboration and information exchange methodology that generates integrated computational models. Simulation plug-ins for BIM tools capable of performing daylighting simulations in a semi-automated way have been developed, thus presenting a more simplified simulation process and favoring the adoption of performance analysis since initial design stages; being a little explored subject. This article aims to investigate the Insight plug-in for Revit, focusing on its daylighting features. The workflow, input-output structure and results of Insight dynamic (sDA) and static (illuminance levels) daylighting metrics were analyzed, comparatively to the plug-in DIVA-for-Rhino, which simulation engines were considered validated by literature. Simulations on both software used the same model of a reference office space for the city of Belo Horizonte. Results indicate that Insight’s favors the daylighting analysis in the initial phases of the design process and allows the verification of code compliances, however determining materials optical properties presents some degree of complexity. Low sensitivity to glasses with low and medium values of light transmittance was noticed in the case study. Evidence of consideration of internal reflections of light rays (ambient bounces) close to 7 may leed to overestimated results in the case of low complexity models. This study intends to contribute to the understanding of the potentials and limitations of both analyzed tools, especially in regard to the specificities of BIM daylight simulation with Insight.

Abstract:
Due to the multiple benefits on energy, well-being, comfort, and the economy, the utilization of daylight remains an imperative topic of architectural design. With the remarkable ability of drawing and increasing daylight deep into the core of buildings, atriums with a large proportion of glazing have become one of the most preferred design forms. The concomitant and unexpected visual discomfort in modern buildings, however, has drawn increasing concerns. Therefore, this study investigated the relation between glazing proportion and daylight performance, as well as the impact of building height and atrium types on daylight performance in atrium buildings by using an annual dynamic simulation method and metrics. It was found that extending glazing proportion had prominent effectiveness in the enhancement of daylighting; building height had a negative influence; round and square types of buildings performed much better than rectangular ones. Moreover, to inform a practical design, we analyzed the link between increasing daylight and visual comfort from the perspective of balancing them, and then proposed a design guide for atrium roof-glazing sizing.

Abstract:
Nowadays, daylight dynamic metrics are the most useful indicators to quantify the use of natural light, with daylight autonomy (DA) being one of the most widespread among all of them. This metric represents the percentage of the occupied time throughout the year in an indoor space when daylight reaches the minimum illuminance level to develop a specific task. Accordingly, the higher the percentage of DA, the shorter the switching on time of electric lighting. However, this metric considers for its calculations all business days of a whole standard year, and is thus not an accurate indicator for seasonal use spaces such as school classrooms. In this context, a variant of this metric is proposed, namely partial daylight autonomy (DAp), which is a non-lineal derivation of DA that considers those seasonal use spaces, helping to define the real percentage of indoor daylight use in order to properly quantify the accurate switching on time of electric lighting and therefore its energy consumption. As deduced from the analysis, the more precise results provided by DAp reach divergences close to 10% in comparison with the original conception of DA. Thus, this metric serves to estimate more accurately the impact on energy consumption if an electric lighting control system is implemented through lux meters. This new proposal has been monitored under real sky conditions in a test cell, providing converging results with those observed in the simulation process.

Abstract:
This thesis investigates the design of atria for daylighting in large scale buildings. Athree dimensional test building with a central atrium was constructed and various parameters of the atrium altered. The impact of these changes was studied through computer simulations of annual daylight distribution by implementing state of theart software. Daylight autonomy is simulated for an annual climate file for Stockholm, Sweden. In the thesis, notion is made of basic daylighting concepts, the importance of bringing daylight into buildings is argued, and the daylighting criteria of three environmental certification tools introduced. Furthermore, a detailed comparison is made on several well known daylight simulation tools. A newly developed, state of the art, daylight simulation tool called Honeybee, is used in the simulation process. The tool utilizes the calculation engines of wellknown daylight simulation software Radiance and Daysim, which apply backward ray-tracing to reach accurate results. Honeybee is coupled to the graphical algorithmeditor Grasshopper for Rhinoceros 3D, which allows for an efficient way of parametric modelling. The comparison of five different daylight simulation tools showed that Honeybee outweighs the capabilities of many of them by offering a wast range of simulation capabilities and also giving the user exceptional control of result data within multiple zones of the test building. The results of the daylight study have been compiled into a document which purpose is to serve as early stage design guidelines of atria for architects. Many factors have been shown through simulation to have a dramatic impact on daylighton an annual basis, and several suggestions have been made on how to maximize the quantity of daylight within buildings containing atria.

This thesis presents a first-of-its-kind approach and simulation of multi-chromatic LED-based dynamic lighting system that the lighting performance can be optimized by itself to less than 5% error. In this work, though the parameters we want to optimize should be calculated nonlinearly, the control of the different LEDs is formulated as a linear optimization problem via the spectrum matching strategy, which is a new way to think how to optimize a dynamic lighting system. Instead of optimizing each parameter directly, here we provide a much more time-saving and space-saving way to optimize the color rendering index, correlated color temperature and luminous flux. Consequently the lighting system can dynamically optimize the light output for greater controllability, higher color quality and luminous flux. The algorithm is also chosen from lots of studies from machine learning, computer science to numerical recipe and implemented into MATLAB to simulate the entire system. In summary, this thesis provides the foundation for future research in the areas of the spectral mixture lighting system model, efficient lighting control, dynamic utility regulation and optimization.

Daylight is the most economical and natural light source, and will differ when the location of sun, time of the day, and the weather condition vary. Dynamically simulating daylight based on the traditional radiosity method and making it a smooth animation is no easy task. We propose an approach which treats light sources in the scene as independent as a sole light source in the progressive refinement radiosity (PRR) framework. By means of performing independent PRR computation for each luminaire with which stores the shot and unshot radiosity, the radiosity of polygons in the scene due to each luminaire can be linearly combined to achieve the final image as luminaires all have being functioning in the process of energy exchange. When changing the sky parameters or simulating the daylight, our proposed method can preserve geometry information of the scene, thus avoiding recomputing the radiosity from the scratch. Therefore, rapid rendering and displaying make daylight simulation with smooth animation possible. When the user expects to observe the daylight effects within a duration of time, he can only specify the starting and ending time of the simulation and the time slot for observation. Our proposed method can effectively simulate the daylight, while performing a vivid animation for observing the lighting variation.

Abstract:
Daylight is one key aspect to enhance the sense of place and influence the personal interpretation and impression that last long after leaving the place. However, visual discomfort and glare can distract architects from achieving the most of daylighting. To better achieve visual comfort in daylit space time and space dynamics of the daylight condition, the representation and re-imagining of these dynamics need to be considered. This chapter explored a selected case study that was used for application: a daylit museum located in Washington DC Metropolitan was examined for visual discomfort problems. Since museums are typically carefully lit because of the sensitivity of exhibits, this case study evaluated the daylighting condition in a museum using a series of illuminance field measurements, simulations, and views experienced by occupants along a circulation path through the space. The case study also aimed at understanding how small design changes can affect visual comfort as a tactic for case studies. A collaborative design effort was used in different stages of the case study.
