Three approaches to optimize optical properties and size of a South-facing window for spatial Daylight Autonomy [PDF]

Building and Environment, 2016
Abstract This study presents optimization approaches by a recent Climate-Based-Daylight-Modeling tool, EvalDRC, to figure out the necessary area for a daylight redirecting micro-prism film (MPF) while minimizing the glazing area. The performance of a window in terms of spatial Daylight Autonomy (sDA) is optimized by its geometry and optical ...
