Caltech's Linde-Robinson Laboratory was originally built in 1932 featuring a Spanish mission-style design, whose function was to facilitate a solar observatory with a coelostat solar telescope dome and a solar shaft extending from the roof to more than 36.58m below the ground. The building has now been transformed into a cutting-edge center for research and instruction in global environmental science that retains its original character while setting new standards in energy efficiency and green design. It is the first LEED Platinum lab in the USA for renovation of a historical research building, consuming only one-sixth of the energy that the lab's comparable laboratories do. This work introduces various energy and environmental strategies hired for its sustainable rehabilitation and, especially, examines the functional validity of solar telescope daylighting by a coelostat. Observations were made on the llumination of underground floors, where illuminances of 40~50 lx were measured.

Three of the leading computer daylighting simulation programs are compared with physical modeling techniques as a means of predicting daylighting performance of interior spaces. Lumen-Micro, Adeline and Lightscape are compared with physical model experiments under clear sky conditions. The comparative evaluations are conducted on analysis of daylight illuminance ratio(%) depending on model types. The estimated average errors are analyzed on 9.4% in Lumen-Micro, 6.3% in Adeline and 3.4% in Lightscape. Therefore, it is proved that three programs are useful for evaluating daylighting performance in our clear sky condition.

This thesis introduced an azimuth tracking prismatic daylighting system. The system improved several issues of the previous passive prismatic daylighting system: low efficiency at sunrise and sunset, glare effect and polarized. The system was developed to track the movement of sun with azimuth tracking device, and it has its own power from the attached solar cells. We compared the with previous passive one in terms with system efficiency and daylighting factors(DF).

자연채광 시스템은 자연광의 건물 실내 유입을 통한 실내조명에 상당히 효율적으로 적용될 수 있다. 특히, 건물에서 사용되는 에너지 중 28%는 조명에너지에 사용되는 점을 감안하면, 인공조명에의 의존도를 낮출 수 있는 자연채광시스템의 역할은 상당히 중요하다고 할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 최근 국내에 보급된 다양한 추적식 자연채광시스템(Active Daylighting System)의 특성 및 이용 현황에 대한 조사와 분석을 수행하였다.

CF(Circular Fresnel) POF(Plastic Optical Fiber) daylighting system is a beam daylighting system utilizing solar direct beam radiation. In this study, a CF POF daylighting system has been introduced, developed and applied to KIER test buildings. The CF POF daylighting system consists of three parts: light collector, light transmitter and light diffuser. The light collector includes a Circular Fresnel lens focusing solar direct illuminance by sun tracking. The light transmitter contains the POF cable which has light transmission loss of 4.5% per meter. The light diffuser has about 80% diffuser efficiency. This study aims to evaluate of POF daylighting system performance. At the results of a CFPOF system performance evaluation, the theoretical CFPOF system efficiency was 41.9% and the actual CFPOF system efficiency at the KIER test building was 37.5%. The difference was due partly to the connecting efficiency.

One of the challenge for successful daylighting design might be to capture sunlighting that varies in both intensity and position and to deliver the luminous flux into the inner space as deep as possible. Conventional glazing apertures allow daylight in the outer 3.5m of a perimeter spaces. More advanced daylighting technologies can extend this daylighting depth by reflecting sunlight further from the windows within a deep floor area. For this purpose, this study developed light shelves based on performance evaluation with a mock-up model that constructed recently and measured under real sky condition. All these daylighting devices have a customized geometry developed from the solar path at a given latitude and utilize unique reflecting finishing to maximize the amount of redirection and diffusion of the daylight. This paper tells that the best daylighting penetration typically can be expected from using light-colored sloped external shelves.

Daylighting software is an important component to predict the performance of daylighting system in advance of a field demonstration study with installing them in buildings. PHOTOPIA is a powerful software to generate a candela distribution curve(CDC) of an active daylighting system like a tracking dish concentrator. With PHOTOPIA, a set of candela distribution curves was generated under clear sky conditions and different solar altitude angles. The candela distribution curves were then imported to RADIANCE for rendering and analysis on the daylighting performance of a tracking dish concentrator when it installed in a actual class room without windows. As a result, the daylight collection efficiency of the dish concentrator was 68.4% when we assumed that there was no tracking error. It was found that candela(cd) and total lumens(lm) increased with solar altitude rising, whereas the distribution angle was fixed. The illuminance uniformity on the work plane in the class room was relatively low, 0.12, while the illuminance uniformity on the area of $2.7m^2$ to which the light was illuminated was considerably high, 0.60. The maximum illuminance was 1,340lux with a solar altitude angle of 80 degrees.

Daylighting in building is very important as it has an effect on work performance as well as on their visual health. It is also regarded as a good energy conservation measure in saving energy used for lighting. There are many daylighting evaluation tools such as empirical equations, tables, nomograms, diagrams, protractors, computer simulation, scale models. This study conducted initial daylight measurements to analyze luminous environment in classrooms of elementary school and comparative analysis on three daylighting evaluation tools, such as daylight factor calculation formula, the graphic method with BRE Protractor and computer simulation with Adeline 3.0. It is found that the computer simulation tool produced the closest result to actual measurements of luminous environment in elementary school classroom, and the other simplified tools made appropriate results so that they can be used in the early stage of daylighting design process.

Daylighting is a powerful vehicle of architectural expression and provides buildings a living quality due to constantly changing properties in intensity and color. As an environmental system, daylighting should be subjected to the same level of rigorous analysis and review that any environmental system receives. For example, increasing cooling loads and causing visual displeasure are easily occurred owing to the excessive sunlight through windows. Therefore, daylighting performance attributes and physical characteristics must be described qualitatively and quantitatively in early design process. In various architectural daylighting performance evaluation methods, the scale model experiment can be applied due to it's simplicity and usefulness. So, this study aims to evaluate the validation of scale model experiments in architectural daylighting performance. For the purpose, two scale model experiments under clear sky are conducted. And, the validation of the experiments are evaluated by computer simulations.
