Light-emitting diodes (LED) have many advantages for dental astral lighting because of their high color rendering index (CRI), low power consumption, light weight and longer life. A dental astral lamp is specially designed and simulated for securing the extra space for installing a multimedia display that will be helpful for treating young patients. The optical system using the reverse dual reflection method consisted of four illumination modules disposed at the four corners of the dental astral lamp, and each module comprises a high power LED, an elliptical mirror, and a multifacet reflector assembly using eight cylindrical mirrors. It is shown that the required illuminance, illumination pattern, and the illumination uniformity are well satisfied.

Purpose: Due to recent increase on energy consumption for light in building, many studies to mitigate this issue have been conducted. Various researches have been carried out to suggest light shelf as one of the solutions, but researches for its reflectivity is very few. In fact, existing research on light shelf shows that utilizing more than 90% of high-illumination materials causes imbalance of glare and illuminance. Method: Therefore this research aimed to evaluate the performance of light shelves depending on reflectivity and to identify proper solution through test-bed. Result: The results are following: 1) Increased reflectivity generally contributed to increase of indoor illuminance but degrade uniformity factor related with indoor comfort of light environment. 2) The $0^{\circ}fixed$ light shelf with 75% of reflectivity and width of 300mm and 40mm appeared to consume more energy than other shelves. Therefore, it is analyzed as unsuitable. 3) This research was conducted by calculating appropriate angle of light shelf around winter and summer solstices and vernal/autumnal equinox. Based on this, performance evaluation was undertaken depending on reflectivity of movable light shelf, which is activated by external sources and can be applied with lower reflectivity than fixed shelf. However, one exception was a movable shelf with width of 600mm that increased light energy consumption when 75% of reflectivity was applied. 4) Performance evaluation of fixed and movable light shelf showed that the shelf with 80% of reflectivity came up with suitable results, but 75% of reflectivity may be applied depending on the width and angle of the shelf. This research is meaningful in that estimation of appropriate reflectivity of light shelf can resolve the glare problem and improve light environment, and further research would be desirable under more diverse conditions to identify proper solution.

As sustainable design technologies, advanced daylighting systems with lightshelves have been developed and are currently under monitoring the daylighting performance. This study aims to evaluate the comparative daylighting performance of sloped lightshelf and conventional glazing window with mock-up model, reconstructed as a prototype of Korean office building, sized $12.0m{\times}7.3m{\times}3.7m$ ($w{\times}d{\times}h$) and $1.8m{\times}4.8m$($w{\times}h$) for the south facing side-window was installed on the rooftop of engineering building, Kyung Hee University in Korea. It has an identical configuration of reference room and the test room. For the test room, the sloped type lightshelf system was designed as 10mm transparency sheet glass, tilt angle degree $29^{\circ}$, and total sized 1.28m (interior length 0.88m, exterior length 0.49m). It consisted of daylighting collector, entrance glazing and reflector. To assess daylighting performance, the totally 37 measuring points for illuminance and 2 view points of luminance were monitored in every 30 minutes from 12:00 to 15:00. For the detailed analysis, photometric sensors of each room were installed at work-plane (8 points), wall (7 points), ceiling (3points), and exterior horizontal illuminance (1 point). Luminance of window, rare of the room was measured under clear sky. It is to be monitored by Agilent data logger, photometric sensor Li-cor and the Radiant Imaging ProMetric 1400. Comparisons with a light factor, increase-decrease ratio, uniformity, and luminance are discussed.

본 논문에서는 점광원을 기준으로 설계된 자유 형상 렌즈(freeform lens)의 조명 성능과 LED 광원 크기와의 관계 및 공차 특성을 살펴보았다. 비교를 위해 발산 조명 모델(divergent illumination model)을 적용한 두 가지 렌즈와 중첩 조명 모델(overlapped illumination model)을 적용한 한가지 렌즈를 설계하였다. LED 광원이 커짐에 따라 평균 조도에 비해 조도 균일도가 상대적으로 크게 감소하였으며, 정렬 오차에 의한 성능 저하는 거의 발생하지 않았다. 하지만 LED 광원의 방출 특성 변화는 LED 광원 크기에 관계없이 조명 성능에 영향을 미치는 것으로 확인하였다. 발산 조명 모델로 설계된 렌즈가 전반적으로 우수한 성능을 보였지만, LED 방출 특성 변화에 대해서는 중첩 조명 모델로 설계된 렌즈의 성능이 상대적으로 적게 변화함을 알 수 있었다.

본 논문은 UV LED를 이용한 line beam 형성 방법에 대한 연구를 진행하였다. 기존의 linear type UV LED 경화기 광학계는 여러 매의 cylindrical lens로 구성되어 있는데 추후 광학계의 align, 모듈의 대형화, 효율 등에서 문제가 발생할 수 있다. 이런 문제점들의 해결을 위한 대안으로서 cylindrical lens와 마찬가지로 Y축 방향에 대해서만 자유 곡면을 가지는 bar type의 TIR lens를 설계하여 최대조도, 조도 균일도, 광속 효율 등에서의 이점이 있음을 검증하였다.

기존의 가로등은 배광특성 조절이 어려워 주변 환경 및 도로의 상황에 따라 빛을 고루 전달하지 못하므로, 눈부심, 농작물 결실저해 및 수면 방해 등의 광공해를 발생시키고 있는 실정이다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위해 주변 환경 및 도로 상황에 따라 조사되는 빛의 각도를 조절할 수 있는 새로운 구조의 LED 가로등 기구를 제안 하였다. 제안된 LED 가로등 기구는 반원구조의 형상을 갖는 각도 조절 장치를 이용하여 도로의 종류 및 특성에 따라 배광특성을 조절 할 수 있도록 하였다. 측정 및 모의실험결과 배광각도는 최소 $100^{\circ}$에서 최대 $154^{\circ}$까지 조절이 가능함을 확인하였고, 평균조도는 KS 규정의 15%를 초과하였으며, 종합 균제도는 KS 규정의 50% 이상을 초과하여 성능이 우수함을 확인할 수 있었다. 따라서 본 연구를 통하여 개발된 대용량 LED 가로등 기구는 광공해를 해소하고 광원 분포의 균제도 최적화와 눈부심을 최소화 할 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness in the lighting performance of mixed type light-shelf, by comparing and analyzing the internal light-shelf, external light-shelf, and mixed-type light-shelf. The performance of light-shelf was evaluated according to the angle of light-shelf at summer solstice, winter solstice, vernal equinox, and autumn equinox. The comparative analysis between the internal light-shelf, external light-shelf, and mixed-type light-shelf was carried out using the performance evaluation and analysis method. The result of performance evaluation is shown as follows. The mixed type light-shelf showed the highest lighting performance all at summer solstice, winter solstice, vernal equinox, and autumn equinox, followed by the external light-shelf and the internal light-shelf in the same order. The mixed type light-shelf was the most favorable for bringing daylight to indoors by adjusting the angle of light-shelf, and it also showed the highest lighting performance in terms of uniformity ratio of illumination which indicates the quality of light.

Daylighting systems can improve the luminous quality of indoor environment and reduce the building's electric lighting energy consumption. For designing good daylighting, place the light where it is desired and avoid excessive contrasts, glare and high light levels. Sun scoop, light scoop and sun catcher systems have been used for alternative systems compared to other natural lighting systems. This study aims to evaluate daylighting performance of sun scoop, light scoop and sun catcher systems using scale model experiments. For the purpose, the 1/10 scale models of the systems were made as the same areas of glazing(10 percent of floor area) on the top of the center roof. Totally 15 measuring points of illuminance on the horizontal work plane were monitored from 09:30 to 12:30 on October 29, 2007. Agilent data logger and photometric sensors Li-cor were used. As the results, the topside lighting systems can improve the illumination uniformity than side lighting and top lighting. However, the appropriated shading system should be integrated to prevent the direct sunlight.

Venetian blinds are used with windows to improve the uniformity ratio of illuminance and interior daylighting distribution under direct sunlit conditions. The main objective of Venetian blinds shading system is to obstruct direct sunlight and at the same time allow daylight to penetrate into the room. Venetian blinds would have greater effect on the interior daylighting condition under clear sky which has both skylight and sunlight than overcast sky which has only skylight. However, due to the lack of data, design and evaluation tools, it is difficult for architects to choose or install venetian blinds during the building design stages. The purpose of this study was to develop an analysis method for shading and daylighting effects of Venetian blinds using the RADIANCE program. The major variables related to the venetian blinds included blinds's slat angle and the ratio of slat width to window height, the radius slat of curvature and the building azimuth. In this study, a series of parametric physical mock-up model measurements and genblinds command in the RADIANCE simulations. The results of this study will provide building designers with the design data at early design stages.
