INTEGRATION OF DAYLIGHT IN SCHOOLS AND KINDERGARTENS

摘要

Daylight is an important topic for wellbeing and also for energy savings. In our paper we present results of a pilot study in a kindergarten, where two exactly the same bathrooms were illuminated with daylight in a different way. One bathroom was practically without any daylight and in the other one two large flat roof windows were installed. Illuminance in both bathrooms was monitored for a period of almost two years. Once in this period we also carried out more precise illuminance measurements on locations, where visual tasks are performed. At that time also luminance measurements with calibrated digital camera were carried out. In this paper we show illuminance levels achieved by daylight in different seasons and at different weather conditions.
