<p class="MsoNormal" style="background-image:initial;background-repeat:initial"><b><span style="font-size:9.5pt;font-family:Arial,sans-serif">Topic:</span></b> <b><span style="font-size:9.5pt;font-family:Arial,sans-serif">Precision in Daylight Modeling</span></b></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="background-image:initial;background-repeat:initial"><span style="font-size:9.5pt;font-family:Arial,sans-serif">With the increasing demand for,
and execution of green buildings through standards such as LEED, Architecture
2030, Net Zero Energy Building, and the WELL Building Standard, the need for
proper integration of energy and daylighting tools is of critical importance.
Unfortunately, many current energy and lighting tools in the marketplace are
interoperable, and as a result, over represent or misrepresent the effects of
daylighting. Energy tools not only limit the geometric expressiveness of a
lighting tool stripping out mullions, wall thicknesses, and other essential
details from daylight models, but also do not model occupant behavior or
provide detailed lighting calculations. As a result, HVAC and electrical
systems can be incorrectly sized and designed. For this presentation, Daniel
Glaser and Sydney Nelson will address how to use daylight modeling tools with a
focus on precision through annual metrics like Spatial Daylight Autonomy and
Annual Sunlight Exposure, as well as the importance of blinds operation,
daylight glare probability, and other details specific to daylight. They will
then lead an open discussion on interoperability among contemporary tools.
Streamlining and sharing of daylighting analysis into energy tools is a missing
link that has prevented energy modeling and simulation from providing both a
more holistic and realistic understanding of energy use in building. By
focusing on electric lighting and daylighting separately, designers, engineers,
and architects are able to achieve true accuracy and all-encompassing analysis
for vastly improved individual and collaborative outcomes.</span></p>
