SHADING EFFECT ANALYSIS

Shading effect analysis:-


The comparison of the energy performance between the two schemes (i.e., assuming with and without day lighting)
Daylight admitted through the building envelope offers an opportunity to significantly reduce lighting requirements and, to lesser extent, cooling loads
To neglect the shading effect due to surrounding buildings (i.e., no sky obstruction). Without external obstruction, the reference-building facade will be able to receive natural light from the half of the sky hemisphere, contributing to large electric-lighting and total-building energy savings when dimming controls are used.
To facilitate an understanding of the shading effects, the obstructed areas of nearby buildings are often changed para metrically in computer simulations.
Regression techniques are then used to study the shading effects due to external obstructions on the building’s energy-consumption for the whole generic reference building as well as individual floors
