Title: Towards an Analysis of Daylighting Simulation Software.
Authors: Acosta, Ignacio1 iacosta@us.es, Navarro, Jaime1 jnavarro@us.es, Sendra, Juan J.1 jsendra@us.es
Source: Energies (19961073). Jul2011, Vol. 4 Issue 7, p1010-1024. 15p. 2 Black and White Photographs, 2 Diagrams, 1 Chart, 8 Graphs.
Subjects: Lighting software, Daylight, Light sources, Geometry, Lighting design
Abstract: The aim of this article was to assess some of the main lighting software programs habitually used in architecture, subjecting them to a series of trials and analyzing the light distribution obtained in situations with different orientations, dates and geometry. The analysis examines Lightscape 3.2, Desktop Radiance 2.0, Lumen Micro 7.5, Ecotect 5.5 and Dialux 4.4. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
