Analysis of Lux Level in a Classroom of an Educational Institution in Dhule City Through Simulation
摘要
Buildings are estimated to consume about 40% of global energy. For an educational institution, lighting level are important to ensure smooth and unobstructed teaching learning process. Measurement of lux levels at several points is a tedious and time-consuming task. The present paper aims to simulate the lux level conditions for a classroom at SVKM’s Institute of Technology, Dhule. The objective is to build a simulation model, expected to replicate the lux level scenario using IES VE Software. It is observed that lux level is excessively high near the windows. This analysis helps in decision making regarding switching off the lights in the relevant zone of the classroom.
