The configuration factors in the flux transfer method are applied to calculate daylight factors reaching a station point. To analyze the window equipped with a louver system, geometrical correlation is used for the length shielded by the louver. The space in front of a window is assumed to be an imaginary outdoor space for calculating the luminance of the louver system. The data calculated from this study are compared with SUPERLlTE simulation data and the scale model data. Scale model data are collected on the roof of the Engineering building at Korea University in Seoul under the uniform sky condition.

The objective of this study is to perform an analysis of the heat(heating and cooling) and lighting energy consumption according to the window area ratio and the application of horizontal louver, which is external shading device installed for the purpose of energy savings in office buildings. For this, a building was chosen as a typical example, and the heat and lighting energy consumption was calculated by using the daylight and building energy analysis simulation. The results showed that the total energy consumption, when the lighting control was applied, was reduced by an average of 11.49[%] compared to when there was no lighting control. The smaller the glazing ratio is, the less the total energy consumption is. Also, the application of the horizontal louver increases the total energy consumption under the same condition of glazing ratio.
