Insight Lighting and Daylighting Analysis: Tubular Skylights (eg Solatube) David Scheer , AIA BEMP Director, Retro. Eta Inc
Tubular Skylights – Prerequisites same as Electric Lighting settings 3 1 4 2 5
Tubular Skylights – Tubular skylight diffuser as a ‘light fixture’ ? 7 6
Tubular Skylights – Tubular skylight ‘light fixture’ simulates daylight from the diffuser ? 8 9
Tubular Skylights – IES file is a daylight simulation for location, time, date, intensity 10 11
Tubular Skylights – Turn on the skylights 12 2
Tubular Skylights – Turn on the skylights 15 14 13 16
Tubular Skylights – Simulate window daylight coordinated with skylight IES simulation 13 12 Coordinate with the IES file parameters • …so that the daylight from the windows is for the same time/date and solar intensity as the light simulated by the IES file parameters. Tubular Skylight Only • Time/Date doesn’t matter, as the ‘Daylight’ from the tubular skylight is simulated by the IES file light profile and intensity.
