  • Use of a DLP-beam projector is proposed to measure solar cell quantum efficiency distribution. The measurement requires a good spatial uniformity of the beam from the projector. We measured the spectral power distribution of the beam projector and the spatial uniformity of the white beam. By changing the gray level of the white beam at the measured spatial points, we improved the spatial illuminance uniformity to be about 2 % which was otherwise as much as 400 %.

  • Average illuminance and luminance can be calculated by graphical methods to a certain extent but to calculate for a wide place a suitable software is needed. Softwares suitable for this purpose have been already developed in foreign nations, but the appropriate softwares for domestic use have not been developed. Therefore a program is developed which is executable in Hangul Windows. The softwares LAPRoad, is developed to calculate luminance and illuminance distribution of road surface, as well as average luminance and illuminance, overall uniformity, longitudinal uniformity, threshold increment veilling luminance and glare. And an apparatus that measures road surface reflection properties is developed. Because the road surface reflection properties is very important in luminance calculation, then concrete road surface reflection properties were measured.

  • Daylighting in educational environment is very important as it has an effect on students' performance as well as in their visual health. It is regarded as a good energy conservation method in saving energy used for lighting. This study conducted initial daylight measurements to analyze luminous environment in classrooms of Korean elementary school. The results indicated that the typical classroom had a reasonable level of daylight. However, it also found that the classroom had some problems of the uniformity of illuminance and the contrast of brightness of surfaces in the classroom. It is argued that daylighting design for school classroom should consider these aspects to make daylit classrooms ideal so as to provide comfortable visual environment.

  • This study aims to evaluate the illuminance performance of sloped light guide with automated venetian blind systems. For the purpose, a mock-up model was constructed as a prototype of Korean office building with $12.0m{\times}7.3m{\times}3.7m$ ($w{\times}d{\times}h$) and south facing side-window mounted between the clerestory window($2.0m^2$) and the view window($5.6m^2$). The light guide of 1.28m deepth and $29^{\circ}$ tilted angle, is covered with 0.6mm galvanized steel sheet and 97% reflective film. To protect the room from low solar angle, a blind systems, 0.15m deepth and $30^{\circ}$ automated slat angle was installed. To assess illuminance performance, the totally 37 measuring points for illuminance were monitored. For the detailed analysis, photometric sensors were installed at work-plane (8 points), wall (7 points), ceiling (3points), and exterior horizontal illuminance (1 point) respectively. The performance was measured under clear sky and is monitored by Agilent data logger, photometric sensor Li-cor and the Radiant Imaging ProMetric 1400. Comparisons of light factor and uniformity are discussed.

  • Due to the large window area, the lighting environment of the educational space between the window and deep part of the room is not uniformly illuminated, and the phenomenon of glare is severe. For this reason, the daylight performance of DSC-BIPV windows was analyzed in order to improve the natural lighting in the educational sector. The method derives the correlation with natural lighting by measurement and simulation. Dynamic simulation confirmed that the average illuminance of the target space was higher at later than the early afternoon. The performance of natural lighting at 40% and 30% transmission of DSC has the effect of significantly reducing the amount of excess light in existing windows. Nevertheless, the actual average illuminance in all seasons corresponds to the standard illuminance of the educational facility, 300 Lux. In addition, the uniformity is also seen through the skylight illuminance ratio.

  • In this research, an overlapped illumination model was newly proposed for designing a freeform LED lens with a uniform illuminance distribution on its illuminating plane. Based on the proposed model and conventional illumination models, freeform lenses were designed and their performances and tolerances were compared. As a result of the tolerance analysis about thickness change in lens, position, size change, central direction change of light emission and characteristic change in LED source. This proposed model and divergent illumination model are similar to the performance about central direction change of light emission in LED source. but the uniformity illumination value in this proposed model is more remarkably value than it in divergent illumination model about characteristic change in LED source.

  • Among educational environment, lighting's role is getting more important since it improves the visual tasks, capability of work, and it help to build both balanced mind and body. Also, since students spend most of their time inside rather than outside, students need appropriate illuminance everyday. If optimum illuminance, the color rendering properties and controlled distribution of lighting is given, people can decrease the fatigue of eyes, recover their health, and also, people can maximize their efficiency of work. In this paper, their is a comparison between the real illuminance and illuminance distribution due to the uniformity ratio of 2 or 3 dimensions by simulation.

  • This research study was conducted to determine the actual conditions of living room lighting in Daegu and Gyeongbuk districts. For this study, 112 households were surveyed. The results of this study are as follows: Firstly, fluorescent light was used as the general illumination of living rooms, and the ratio of not using local sources of illumination was high. Secondly, the standard illuminance was found to be 221. The illuminance was the value that satisfied the activities for togetherness and entertainment, but did not reach the illuminance necessary for other activities, such as reading, make-up, and sewing. In addition, the uniformity of brightness used as a measure of uniformity in examining the results was normal. Thirdly, both the brightness and the satisfaction of lighting in the living room space were indicated to be normal. In addition, in regard to housing lighting, 'stability', and 'brightness of lighting' were indicated as important considerations and 'brightness of lighting', 'shadow' and 'management of lighting' were indicated as problem areas.

  • In this paper, we took an indirect reflectance type that irradiates light from an LED module, which reflects light from a reflector onto the road. This LED pedestrian lighting design produces minimal glare from a relatively simple structure. Using LightTools 7.2, we conducted a study on the varying shape and curvature of the reflector. In order to further investigate this data, we researched the ratio of the DLOR and ULOR, the average illuminance, and the uniformity of the illumination. Based on this research, we selected optimum conditions to realize the actual LED pedestrian lighting using RELUX software. We found the average illuminance value to be 22[1x] and the illuminance uniformity ratio to be 0.23, which met the criteria of the proposed standards set in KS C 7658. In addition, it also satisfied the criteria of the standards set in KS A 3701 by having TI (Threshold Increment) at 7[%].

  • A lighting method of our county is ordinary center concentration form. Therefore, it is usally used the Five Point Method, Multiplicity Method of KS, and Four Point Method of IES to measure a space illuminance. We can use the Five Point Method of KS when we measure a uniformity ratio or activities that happen in space is more sensitive than whole illumination. In addition, we can use the Multiplicity Method of KS and Four Point Method of IES when we measure whole illuminance like mean illuminance. Such method of measurements should be used exactly according to the kinds of space and activities.
