    Literature Review on Smart Windows in Terms of Daylight Performance, Visual Comfort and Human Perception
    (IEEE, 2023) Coğul, Ilgın; Kazanasmaz, Zehra Tuğçe
    The glazing properties of a place affect the lighting conditions and the quality of the indoor environment. These conditions influence occupants' visual comfort and perception. Thus, the design of the glazing component becomes more of an issue. With the emerging smart window technologies, the design options have expanded. These technologies have been investigated mainly in terms of energy performance. This paper presents a literature review of smart windows and their performance on visual comfort and human perception. Experimental studies that conducted measurements or surveys in this field are evaluated. The results of the study showed that with the growing technology of smart windows, it is possible to increase visual comfort and human satisfaction indoors. However, there are performance deficiencies that create particular problems for occupants. The aim of this paper is to collect the studies on smart glazing in terms of visual comfort and human perception and bring out the potential of smart window technologies for human-centric indoors. © 2023 IEEE.

    Lighting Quality and Work Performance Based on Glazing Types and Dynamic Led Lighting
    (IEEE, 2022) Köse, Fatma Büşra; Tayfur, Gökmen; Duran, Hasan Engin; Kazanasmaz, Zehra Tuğçe
    The combination of daylight characteristics and LED lighting quantities determines offices' visual environment. Lighting conditions can influence office workers' health and work performance. This study is an experimental one containing lighting measurements in two offices, subjective performance tests, and questionnaires to find out how work performance, lighting preferences, and satisfaction with lighting quality modify in terms of various glass types and dynamic LED lighting quantities. Glass types have strong impacts on contrast tests on paper and luminance which are corresponding to work performance. Regarding lighting quality, it strongly relates to the homogeneity of light, the impression of artificial light and the perception of objects' textures and color, contrast balance between paper and the surrounding. When the glass was modified in offices, we observed that participants preferred to change the CCT setting of LED by remote control, and in relation to that the eye-level illuminance and SPDs showed significant changes. So, the findings depicted the importance of the choice of glass types concerning LED lighting settings in terms of the above variables.
