Usually the effect of global solar radiation on buildings is evaluated by focusing on the visible part of its spectrum, namely daylight, or on the thermal equivalent of sunlight, solar heat gains through external windows. At present, due to the difficulty of integrating and comparing thermal and daylighting results, approaches considering the integrated effect of global solar radiation are scarce...
The main aim of this article is to analyze the precision of several lighting simulation programs regularly used in daylighting studies for architecture, following the methodology established in the CIE test cases document. The 3DS Max Design 2014, Daylight Visualizer 2.6, DaySim 3.1b, Design Builder 3.0, Dialux 4.8, Ecotect Analysis 2011, Lightscape 3.2 and Relux Pro programs are analyzed. In order...
