1 Daylighting Openings Levente Filetóth Dpt. of Building Energetics and Services K Daylighting Luminaires = Openings Light sources direct sunlight diffused light of the sky reflected light Luminaires Openings: side-lights (such as windows) skylights Special daylighting systems Openings Side lights (windows) Skylights

2 Openings Daylight enters through the transparent surfaces of the openings into the interior Openings are the those structural units that contains such transparent surfaces Openings Openings let the daylight in, while also modify the characteristics of daylight Their orientation determines the part of the sky hemisphere that will provide daylight Their structure will effect the illuminance distribution in the interior Openings Integral part of the building envelope and of the building structure Most comply with several disciplines (energy, structure, building construction) besides providing natural light Provide visual connection with the exterior

3 Openings Structural aspects Widows (side lights), Skylights Transparent walls Transparent ceilings Other transparent elements of the building shell and structure Openings Main structural parts of openings (considering daylighting) Transparent surfaces Obstructions (frame) Reflecting surfaces Openings Main structural parts of openings (considering daylighting) Transparent surfaces Obstructions (frame) Reflecting surfaces

18 Openings and Shading Devices The amount of daylight entering the interior changes constantly, the transparency of shading devices must adopt to this: dark exterior (night) adequate amount of daylight is present (eq. cloudy sky) intolerable amount of daylight is present (eq. clear sky) Openings and Shading Devices Openings - equipped with internal or external shading devices - must also ensure visual connection with the exterior, possibly at all times! Dark exterior Glazed surfaces become black holes on the building envelope It is recommended to add curtains for the internal surfaces of the openings at night!

Daylighting. Note: Daylight is typically defined as diffuse light and is very different from sunlight (direct solar radiation).

Daylighting. Note: Daylight is typically defined as diffuse light and is very different from sunlight (direct solar radiation). systems can significantly reduce both lighting consumption and cooling-energy consumption by reducing the electric-lighting heat gain in the building. However, daylighting can also cause increased heating-energy
