TY - RPRT T1 - The Effects of Skylight Parameters on Daylighting Energy Savings Y1 - 1985/ A1 - Dariush K. Arasteh A1 - Russell Johnson A1 - Stephen E. Selkowitz AB - Skylight parameters that affect lighting, cooling, heating, fan, and total energy use in office buildings are examined using the state-of-the-art building energy analysis computer code, DOE-2.1B. The lighting effects of skylight spatial distribution, skylight area, skylight visible transmission, well factor, illumination setpoint, interior partitions, ceiling height, and glazing characteristics are discussed. This study serves as the foundation for the creation of a DOE-2.1B database and design tools for estimating daylighting energy savings from skylights. U1 -
