A Study on the Calculation of Illuminance Distribution in Interior by the Monte Carlo Simulation

몬테카를로 시뮬레이션을 이용한 실내면의 조도계산에 관한 연구

In this paper, illuminance distribution is calculated by the Monte Carlo simulation. In comparison with other methods, it has simpler arithmetic process. Light is assumed to be of particle nature. It has particular direction taken from a random function. Paths of each particle are calculated, and the final absorbing points are found. repeating this process, the statistical illluminance distribution is determined proportional to the number of particles striking each wall. For a better result and graphic output, each wall surface was divided into many small ones.
