Minimum Daylight Autonomy: A New Concept to Link Daylight Dynamic Metrics with Daylight Factors
LEUKOS, 2019 Daylight metrics act as a useful tool to quantify the potential of natural light in an architectural space as well as the energy savings promoted by a suitable design of windows, atriums, and skylights. Accordingly, a new indoor lighting metric is proposed, minimum daylight autonomy, defined as the percentage of occupied time when an illuminance ...
