Abstract
This paper is a study on the design of the solar lamp bank which is a very important part of the solar simulator with the commercial metal halide lamps and infrared lamps. Lamp Bank is designed by the lamp bank design program based on point light source theory. The reliability of the program for lamp bank design is verified through irradiance variation experiments of a kind of lamp according to horizontal distance. Solar lamp bank facilitates heat distribution and satisfies the irradiance in the three wave length which test guidelines require. The shape of the ceiling board next to the lamp bank to promote the lamp cooling efficiency and to reduce temperature deviation and air velocity deviation in the chamber is so creative. The ceiling board of partial closed type is the best among several types.
