Daylight availability in top-lit atria: prediction of skylight transmittance and daylight factor
Lighting Research and Technology, 2000 Atrium and skylight shapes are important architectural design elements that influence daylight availability within the space and, therefore, lighting energy consumption. There is a lack of prediction models for skylight transmittance. and daylight availability in atria. A new concept was developed to predict the diffuse transmittance of skylights.
