Fade Lighting Control Method for Visual Comfort and Energy Saving
View through CrossRef
This study proposes a fade lighting control method to ensure the visual comfort of indoor occupants through gradual illuminance control while saving energy. The illuminance sensor measures the indoor illuminance and calculates the required illuminance for achieving a reference illuminance of 500 Lux. The control illuminance for each lighting is derived based on the required illuminance, and it is confirmed to fall within the threshold range of 20%. The illuminance values and time intervals for fade lighting control are calculated, ensuring that the amount of illuminance adjustment is divided by the size of the threshold range or less. In the performance evaluation, the proposed method (experimental group) was compared with the influence-based control method (control group). The result shows that this fade lighting control method minimizes the visual discomfort of occupants caused by sudden changes in lighting, and the same energy-saving of 11-42% is achieved as the control group.
