Abstract
Dette sammenlignende studie undersøger, hvordan lyshylder (light shelves)—passive dagslysanordninger i form af vandrette, reflekterende flader ved vinduer—klarer sig i tre byer, der repræsenterer tempereret, subtropisk og tropisk klima. Arbejdet kombinerer teori og analyse af naturligt direkte dagslys med vurderinger af lyshylders ydeevne. I en casebygnings kontekst blev der gennemført eksperimenter med fire scenarier for at undersøge, hvordan tilføjelse af lyshylder kan øge dagslyset i indendørs rum, og om en enkelt designløsning kan fungere på tværs af alle tre klimazoner.
This comparative study examines how light shelves—passive daylighting devices consisting of horizontal reflective surfaces at windows—perform in three cities representing temperate, subtropical, and tropical climates. The research combines theory and analysis of natural direct daylight with assessments of light-shelf performance. In a case study building, experiments with four scenarios were conducted to evaluate how adding light shelves can increase daylight in interior spaces and to explore whether a single design strategy could work across all three climate zones.
