Supplementary artificial lighting is combination artifical lighting and daylighting which are a system of combined together to provide an even illumination.
Subject and UNIT: Physics For Civil Engineering: Unit III: Acoustics and Lighting Designs
Light can be produced by nature or by humans. "Artificial" light is typically produced by lighting systems that transform electrical energy into light.
predict daylight penetration into any building
Subject and UNIT: Physics For Civil Engineering: Unit III: Acoustics and Lighting Designs
Model studies can be used to predict daylight penetration into any building. This is the only reliable prediction method in the case of unusual situations, complex geometries or heavily obstructed windows.
Luminous flux and intensity
Subject and UNIT: Physics For Civil Engineering: Unit III: Acoustics and Lighting Designs
The amount of light being given off by a particular source, in all directions is called luminous flux (or "luminous power"). It is a measure of the total perceived power of light and it is measured in lumens.
Subject and UNIT: Physics For Civil Engineering: Unit III: Acoustics and Lighting Designs
Daylighting design of window is the practice of placing windows or other openings and reflective surfaces so that natural day light provides effective internal lighting.
