1. Considering direct sunlight within buildings
2. Direct sunlight – a multidimensional phenomenon
3. Related work
4. SPOT- Time Projection - Navigable animation - Demo
5. Implementation
6. Future work
1- Why to consider direct sunlight in buildings ?
Benefits of the sun :
ENERGY SAVING:>Artificial lighting = 25 % of the electric energy >"efficient daylight = energy saving (by 30-60% )“
PRODUCTIVITY:>Students : learn faster, test higher.sales increase an average of 40%
HEALTH: Alleviates: stress, anxiety, depression, migraines, sleep disorders, immune system function, cholesterol levels, increases calcium utilization, visual acuity, Cardiac outputs .
1- An appropriate building shape for :
• Using sun energy and avoiding overheating
• Avoiding Glare
• Over Shading control
3- Related Work• Ecotect: a "Shadow Range function":Representing multiple shadows on the same diagram
5 – Future Work
Thermal function & shading function.
Proposing a solution to save the outputs and communicate them.
