    Comparison of Advanced Daylighting Systems To Improve Illuminance and Uniformity Through Simulation Modelling
    (Znack Publishing House, 2014) Kazanasmaz, Zehra Tuğçe; Kazanasmaz, Zehra Tuğçe; Fırat Örs, Pelin; 02.02. Department of Architecture; 02. Faculty of Architecture; 01. Izmir Institute of Technology
    Deficiencies in daylighting performance (illuminance and uniformity) of educational facilities may cause health problems, work performance loss and excessive energy consumption. The varying nature of daylight in daily and yearly basis is a strong challenge on that matter. Advanced daylighting systems have been developed to overcome this challenge. Improving the daylighting performance of existing buildings is another difficulty in daylighting design. Daylighting design needs should be carefully considered at the initial design stages of the buildings. So, the aim of this study was to improve the illuminance and uniformity in four selected architectural design studios in Izmir. Measurements of daylight illuminance were conducted in May and June 2012. Simulation models were built in Ecotect/Radiance. To reach the best daylighting performance, simulations were carried out by Desktop Radiance with applying laser cut panels, prismatic panels and light shelves. It is considered that retrofitting efforts after the construction would be inadequate regarding daylighting, unless complying with the standards during the design process.

    Applicability of a Prismatic Panel To Optimize Window Size and Depth of a South-Facing Room for a Better Daylight Performance
    (Znack Publishing House, 2020) Köse, Büşra; Kazanasmaz, Zehra Tuğçe; Kazanasmaz, Zehra Tuğçe; 02.02. Department of Architecture; 02. Faculty of Architecture; 01. Izmir Institute of Technology
    This study examines the performance of attached prismatic panels, which have shading capability, in a side-lit deep plan room to find out the least possible WWR value in relation to room depth satisfying the required daylight availability. The methodology is based on simulating a base model in Relux and testing it with alternative models composed of incrementally defined WWR and room depth values. In accordance with minimum IES requirements, the most satisfying sDA value was found to be 48.54 % in a room of 12 m depth with 67 % WWR. An sDA of 51.59 % and 59.26 % was achieved in a room of 9m depth with 43 % WWR and 6m depth with 30 % WWR, respectively. The least ASE values were obtained with the least WWR alternative of 30 % in all room depths. This study presents a new approach with the consideration of innovative daylight redirecting systems to propose revisions for the requirements mentioned in standards about daylight in buildings but based on conventional fenestration systems. © 2020, LLC Editorial of Journal ""Light Technik"".
