| Abstract |
The purpose of this study was to provide visual evaluation data in a workstation space when different lighting types were applied. For the performance evaluation, Radiance program was used for simulations, and the mock-up room(15.0x11.6x3m) was used for the actual test. The results of this study were as follows; 1) When the indirect lighting simulation data using Radiance was compared with the actual data in a small workstation space, there was a 6.5% difference. Therefore, Radiance program was proved to be useful for the evaluation of lighting performance. 2) Higher light levels (higher light ratio (%)) were recorded in the straddled layout and lower light levels (lower light ratio (%)) were recorded in the centered layout condition in most cases. 3) Also, the results show that the indirect luminaires and the straddled layouts provide higher uniformity, whereas the direct luminaires and the centered layouts have lower uniformity. |
