Lighting Simulation Workshop at Hotel Clarks Amer jaipur

IGBC and IBPSA India Joint Workshop on
'Lighting Simulation for Visual Comfort and Energy Efficiency’
4 Oct, 2017 | 0930 hrs to 1730 hrs
Venue: Kanchan Hall, Hotel Clarks Amer, Jaipur
It is estimated that lighting consumes 15-20% of total electricity use in large office buildings in the country. Both daylighting and artificial lighting play an important role in reducing energy usage in buildings. Lighting controls play important role in energy efficiency and you are one of the recognised experts in this particular area. My I take this opportunity to invite you to speak on 'Energy Efficiency Through Controls' during the workshop.

The daylight simulation is a process to determine the areas that are well lit throughout the day-time operations and the areas where artificial lighting is necessary. Therefore tremendous potential to save energy through design optimization.

The existing building stock in India is 25 billion sq ft and which is predicted to touch 100 billion sq ft by 2030. Therefore it is imperative that these buildings need to be energy efficient by design. Today there are tools which enable energy optimization leading to the high performance of buildings, where the lighting has been seen as an important parameter. Recent studies conducted worldwide show that daylighting also improves comfort and productivity in buildings.

Against the above background, Indian Green Building Council (IGBC) and International Building Performance Simulation Association (IBPSA) India are organizing a joint workshop on 4 October 2017, Jaipur coinciding with its flagship event, the Green Building Congress 2017 at Jaipur, scheduled to be held from 4-7 Oct 2017.

What is adaptive thermal comfort ?

-
Image
Overview Field studies of thermal comfort have been conducted intensively at various climatic locations to define the range of acceptable thermal environment for air-conditioned and naturally conditioned buildings that led to the development of Adaptive Thermal Comfort (ATC) model.  Research on adaptive thermal comfort revealed a higher range of acceptable temperatures, which depend on climate, building type, behavioral controls, and other similar factors. Field studies have also revealed the role of thermal adaptation to conserve energy in air-conditioned buildings, and this concept is also useful for building design, and operation of naturally conditioned buildings as per the outdoor conditions.  Higher bandwidth of comfort temperature and energy conservation opportunities encouraged researchers to carry out intensive field studies of thermal comfort to propose robust adaptive thermal comfort model. Definition Adaptive principle states that if a change occur...

ISO 7730 for Thermal Environment Evaluation

-
ISO 7730 is an International Standard for 'Ergonomics of the Thermal Environment-Analytical Determination and Interpretation of Thermal Comfort Using Calculation of the PMV and PPD and Local Thermal Comfort Criteria’.  ISO 7730 illustrates methods to evaluate the general thermal sensation and the degree of discomfort for occupants exposed to moderate thermal environmental conditions. This Standard grouped the thermal environment into three different categories namely  Category-A,  Category-B and  Category-C  All there  categories  are described with the help of Table given below.  Category-A describes narrow comfort conditions, whereas Category-C prescribes wider comfort bandwidth (-0.7 < PMV < +0.7). The Standard describes the calculation of PMV and PPD indices for thermal comfort and for local discomfort. The Standard also defines the local clothing habits for indoor comfort and but does not provide information for cl...

EN 15251 for Energy and Thermal Environment Evaluation

-
Comfort standard EN 15251 (version released in 2007) is entitled to ‘Indoor environmental input parameters for design and assessment of energy performance of buildings–addressing indoor air quality, thermal environment, lighting and acoustics.’  The Standard EN 15251 deals with energy performance of buildings as well as indoor environment quality such as thermal environment, indoor air quality, acoustic comfort, and visual comfort conditions to provide more comfortable indoor climate and that is also energy efficient.  Previous research  (Nicol & Wilson conducted study in 2010)   has examined that EN15251 Standard helps building designers to optimise the building energy consumption, considering thermal, air quality, acoustic and visual comfort. Furthermore, studies carried out under SCATs (Smart Controls and Thermal Comfort) research project reveal that this Standard involve  only   European countries for energy and comfort evaluation. SCAT s...
