Predicting Daylight Illuminance for 15 CIE Standard Skies Using a Simple Software Tool [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Sustainable Cities, 2022
Estimation of internal daylight availability is the key step in evaluating various daylighting schemes. Interior daylight is often expressed as daylight factor under the traditional International Commission on Illumination (CIE) overcast sky. Nonetheless, such approach may be inflexible to estimate the kinetic situations as the solar locations vary ...
