Abstract

Günümüzde ofislerde geçirilen yoğun çalışma saatleri nedeniyle aydınlatma tasarımında görsel konforun ve enerji verimliliğinin sağlanması önemli bir konudur. Bu çalışmada, ofislerde yapay aydınlatma parametrelerinin görsel konfor ve enerji tüketim iüzerindeki etkilerinin belirlenmesine yönelik bir yaklaşım geliştirilmesi amaçlanmıştır. Bu amaçla öncelikle Trabzon'da olduğu varsayıla üç farklı büyüklükte ve farklı yüzey yansıtma katsayılarına sahip ofis hacimleri DIAlux evo simülasyon programında modellenmiştir. Simülasyon programında yapay aydınlatma tasarım parametreleri ile ilgili değişkenler geliştirilmiş ve hesaplamalar yapılmıştır. Enerji verimliliğini değerlendirmek için W/lm/m2 değerleri hesaplanmıştır. Çalışmadan elde edilen veriler regresyonanalizi ve çıkarımsal istatistiksel analizler ile değerlendirilmiştir. Bulgulara gore bir aydınlatma tasarımcısının görsel konforu ve enerji performansını sağlamaki için LED lamba, mikroprizmatik optik yansıtıcı ve yüzeye monte direct aydınlatma armatürleri seçmesi önerilmektedir.

A Proposal on Artificial Lighting Design in Offices Considering Visual Comfort and Energy Performance

Abstract

Given the extensive working hours spent in offices today, ensuring visual comfort and energy efficiency in lighting design has becomea critical concern. This study aims to develop an approach to determine the effects of artificial lighting parameters on visual comfort and energy consumption in offices. For this purpose, office volumes of three different sizes and with varying surface reflection coefficient, assumed to be located in Trabzon, Turkey were first modeled using DIAlux evo simulation program. Variables related to artificial lighting design parameters were established, and calculations were perfomed within simulation program. W/lm/m2 values were calculated to evaluate the energy efficiency. The data obtained from this study were evaluated using regression analysis and inferential statistical analyses. Based on the findings, it is suggested that a lighting designer consider selecting an LED lamp, a surface mounted direct lighting luminarewitha microprismatic optic type to ensure the visual comfort and energy performance.
