Window design should consider the holistic impacts on building energy, lighting performance, and the connection to the outdoors provided by the view which is usually overlooked. In this study, view perception, stress recovery, physiological, and psychological affect were evaluated in virtual environments of five different conditions varying the physical dimensions of a window located in the same office space with an urban view. This allowed three window-to-wall ratios (i.e. 10%, 20%, and 30%) and two different window layouts (i.e. narrow and wide) to be compared. Twenty-five participants were recruited. Subjective self-assessments on view perception (e.g. content and complexity), self-assessment and physiological measures (e.g. skin conductance and heart rate variability) stress recovery besides psychological affect were measured. Participants performed a Stroop-test to induce stress that was immediately followed by a period of recovery facilitated by exposure to one of the five window conditions. Results showed that increased window size advocated higher view perception assessments, increased stress recovery, and positive psychological affect. Measurements of skin conductance and heart rate variability also corroborated these findings. Differences in window layout were also revealed, but only for 10% WWRs. Therefore, WWR is not a reliable indicator for view perception for small window sizes, indicating that layout preference is dependent on window size. This study highlights the importance of considering view perception for occupant health and wellbeing when sizing window openings, since these may not necessarily align with other design criteria.KEYWORDS: Window viewvisual perceptionvirtual reality (VR)daylightingstress recovery AcknowledgmentsThe authors would like to extend their thanks to Al-Zaytoonah University of Jordan and to all participants who took part in the experiment.Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).Additional informationFundingThis work was supported by the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council, UK [grant number EP/S030786/1].","PeriodicalId":49911,"journal":{"name":"Leukos","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135316312","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Given a set of chromaticity coordinates—which are calculated from a light source’s spectral power distribution—it is possible to compute CCT and Duv with varying levels of accuracy. Over the last six decades at least a dozen methods have been proposed to compute CCT while balancing accuracy with calculation complexity. CCT values become inconsistent at some level of precision when calculated using different methods, which in turn can lead to discrepancies in dependent or subsequent calculations used by lighting professionals and may be problematic in software. Although methods are now documented that can provide extremely high accuracy, no consensus body has recommended a preferred method. This analysis examines both the calculation speed and the CCT and Duv accuracy of previously proposed and new methods. With consideration of the calculation accuracy, computational burden, calculation complexity, and considerations of practical implementation, we recommend a recent modification of the Robertson method.","PeriodicalId":49911,"journal":{"name":"Leukos","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135690120","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This renovation has been carried out on a large scale by replacing some luminaires with others without taking into account other elements of the circuit. Due to the high number of electronic components, LED luminaires generate inrush currents that can exceed several times the nominal current value at ignition process. This electrical phenomenon is a basic problem to be solved when planning a street lighting renovation with LED luminaires, because it is essential to have a prior estimation of the inrush current generated by the luminaires for a correct sizing of the circuit protection elements. Currently, it is difficult to predict the value of the inrush current, for this reason, the main objective is to establish an innovative methodology based on advanced multi-criteria decision-making methods (entropy and CRITIC) to predict anomalous behaviors (inrush current peaks) in LED luminaire installations and their appropriate selection in the design phase or before are mounted in the circuit to avoid negative consequences on the components and to dimension them correctly, producing cost savings in the replacement of circuit elements such as circuit breakers and switches.","PeriodicalId":49911,"journal":{"name":"Leukos","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135691184","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
