<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:#17365D">Since eQUEST utilizes a split flux calculation which averages lighting levels, it is not super accurate when it comes to daylighting. You can, however, use daylighting to approximate
energy savings in eQUEST using appropriately zoned perimeters spaces and sunspaces.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:#17365D"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:#17365D">If you truly want accurate daylighting in eQUEST, you’re going to have to use a third party software and create an 8760 schedule within eQuest to reflect the results (I suggest
using a GUI for Radiance such as AGi32).<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">I am modeling a building with many clerestory windows of various orientations in a complex roof geometry. I would like to accurately model the daylighting savings in eQUEST. Has anyone had luck creating an input function that uses daylight
illuminance factors, <a href="http://simulationresearch.lbl.gov/dirpubs/complex_dayltg.pdf">
as described by Steve Baker</a> back when Bush Sr. was president and <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9EcjWd-O4jI">
