Abstract
For improving the simulation accuracy of circadian lighting, a workflow was established to first calibrate the simulation model under electric lighting followed by validation with integrated daylighting and electric lighting. A case study was conducted in a daylit office, with the evident impact of varying lighting parameters (light level, intensity, SPD, reflectance) on the simulation accuracy. In the fully calibrated model, the simulated and field-measured SPDs are highly correlated (rSPD ≥ 0.9), providing the acceptable accuracy of the simulated melanopic/photopic(M/P) ratio with the error rate (MBErel) less than 4% and residual deviation (RMSErel) within 7%. The MBErel and RMSErel of corneal illuminance (EV), EML, and CS are within 10% and 20%, respectively. The ratio of data points with the residual rate (e) less than 20% is over 75% in the calibration and validation phases. Conclusively, the proposed procedure could help prepare for further analysis of circadian light exposure.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Building Performance Simulation (JBPS) aims to make a substantial and lasting contribution to the international building community by supporting our authors and the high-quality, original research they submit. The journal also offers a forum for original review papers and researched case studies
We welcome building performance simulation contributions that explore the following topics related to buildings and communities:
-Theoretical aspects related to modelling and simulating the physical processes (thermal, air flow, moisture, lighting, acoustics).
-Theoretical aspects related to modelling and simulating conventional and innovative energy conversion, storage, distribution, and control systems.
-Theoretical aspects related to occupants, weather data, and other boundary conditions.
-Methods and algorithms for optimizing the performance of buildings and communities and the systems which service them, including interaction with the electrical grid.
-Uncertainty, sensitivity analysis, and calibration.
-Methods and algorithms for validating models and for verifying solution methods and tools.
-Development and validation of controls-oriented models that are appropriate for model predictive control and/or automated fault detection and diagnostics.
-Techniques for educating and training tool users.
-Software development techniques and interoperability issues with direct applicability to building performance simulation.
-Case studies involving the application of building performance simulation for any stage of the design, construction, commissioning, operation, or management of buildings and the systems which service them are welcomed if they include validation or aspects that make a novel contribution to the knowledge base.
