Abstract |
This study purposes to increase the energy-saving effects by reducing excessive intensity of radiation of artificial lighting through analyzing daylight incident. A photosensor sends amounts of detected luminous flux to digital control unit(DCU) as a signal and then, it can decide dimming ratios, received a proper dimming signal from DCU. Generally it is effective to control artificial lighting with the different control ratio of each zone by setting a photosensor as same numbers and rows as artificial lighting. However, it is ineffective to do in initial costs of systems aspect in offices. As a result of grasping the distribution of daylight previously and analyzing daylight and dimming data, we can dim different dimming ratios to each zone of artificial lighting by a single photosensor. |
