Character and illuminance distribution of daylighting is very important for the architectural plan in museum. Those data show bases for exhibition space design with daylighting and play a decisive role in visual perception of articles and space aesthetic. The goal of this paper was therefore to analyze the illuminance distribution in fine art museum with 3 typical girdle skylight types which are devided according to the art of protection from glare. This Experiment proved that they had a striking contrast with regard to the ratio of daylight illumination and illuminance distribution in spite of the same purpose of those development. The girdle skylight with a translucent glass showed the strongest value of the ratio of daylight illumination, but inequable illuminance distribution in space, excepting the area of the wall. However, the latticed reflector of light refracted daylight in the direction of wall and made illuminance distribution very equable in whole space. The ratio of daylight illumination at the girdle skylight which was located at the verge of the ceiling, was highest at the upper part of the wall and was reduced gradually from there, by way of the middle and under part of the wall, to the center of space.

For the proper utilization of daylight in a building, an architect should be able to utilize the building enveloped as a filter to admit daylight into the building. The daylighting concepts commonly used in buildings are categorized as sidelighting, toplighting and atrium, and their lighting concepts and characteristics are discussed. The decision of the daylighting concepts for a building should be based on the analysis of the quantity, characteristics and directionality of daylight, and resulting contrast effect.

This study based on the experimental data on the daylight responsive dimming systems performance. The purpose of this study increases the energy-saving effects by reducing excessive intensity of radiation of artificial lighting through analyzing incident daylight. The photosensor sends amounts of detected luminous flux to digital control unit(DCU) as a signal and then, it can decide dimming ratios, by received a proper dimming signal from DCU. Generally it is effective to control artificial lighting with the different control ratio of each row 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. By analyzing the data of this performance and finding regular ration between photosensors. we will execute different dimming ratios to each row of artificial lighting by a single photosensor.

Smart windows are capable of varying their visible light transmittance (VLT) in response to changing environmental conditions. The VLT variability of architectural windows is highly valuable because it enables indoor lighting and energy environments to align with external changes. However, challenges such as high installation costs and assurance of glass visibility have prompted the exploration of alternative solutions, including models incorporating partially applied smart windows., Prior research focused on useful daylight illuminance (UDI) analysis for south-facing office buildings, pointing out suitable areas for smart-window implementation to enhance lighting control. In this study, we broadened this scope by determining optimal smart-window application zones under changing building orientation. Furthermore, we studied the correlation between building orientation and smart-window deployment areas.

The objective of this study is to develop the blind control strategy and method which reduce negative effect of incoming daylight on visual comfort of occupants, minimize psychological anxieties caused by frequent motions of a blind, and maximize positive effect of incoming daylight and solar irradiation by opening/closing of a blind. As previous researches on blind controls have limited outdoor environmental conditions to those in specific regions, orientations and dates, these resulted in problems at various conditions for general-purpose application. Major problem is that the time interval and amount of blind movement do not meet the control objective at the end of control zone and discontinuous curve. To overcome these limitations revealed in the previous researches, following tasks were performed in this study. 1) To establish the control objective to accomplish the goal of this study. 2) To develop the control methods and algorithms which prevent glare on the work-plane at any time and which control the time interval and amount of blind movement to follow the control objective at various profile angle curves. 3) To validate the general-purpose applicability and performance of the developed control methods and algorithms by simulation and its data analysis at various conditions. It was found that the proposed methods and algorithms can prevent the direct glare on the work-plane at all the time and also increase the incoming daylight and solar irradiation.

The study has conducted a research on the main shape of domestic multi-family residential buildings. The four arrangements were selected after the research and each of them was analyzed for daylight, view and natural ventilation according to the different pitch of buildings. Based on the results from the analysis, the optimum pitch of buildings for each of the arrangements are as follows. With looking at the outcomes from the analysis on changes in residential environment by the pitch of building buildings in the four arrangements, it was figured out that it would be the best if the distance is more than 1.0H for Case_1. For Case_2, it should be more than 0.9H and for Case_3, it has to be 1.0H or more. Last but not least, it seems to be superb if the distance is more than 0.9H for Case_4.

An architectural means of optimal daylight distribution is by using so-called light shelf systems, horizontal shading and redirecting devices. The overall performance of the daylighting system can be improved by the incorporation with electric lighting control devices. This paper aims to exemplify the benefit of daylighting in term of economic consideration. In such a case a reasonable technique to compare system costs is by life-cycle costing. Stated simply, a life-cycle cost represents the total cost of a system over its entire life cycle, that is, the sum of first cost and all future costs. Four different electric lighting system designs are proposed and a lighting control system that is continuously operating according to the level of daylight in the space has been adapted. The result shows clearly that although denser layout of lighting fixtures might be more effective to interface to the level of daylight ceaselessly changeable, its economic benefit may not meet the expected criterion the reason of increased initial investment and maintenance cost for the fixtures and control devices.
