本研究的目的是开发一种简单的方法，用于计算受采光影响的建筑物中使用的年照明、冷却和加热能量。它旨在供工程师和建筑师在早期建筑设计阶段使用，以对开窗做出初步决定，或评估现有组件的变化，如玻璃或采光控制。引文:德克萨斯州休斯顿ASHRAE学报第88卷第1部分

The object of this study was the development of a simple method for the calculation of the annual lighting, cooling, and heating energy used in a building as affected by daylighting. It is intended for use by engineers and architects in an early building design stage to make preliminary decisions on fenestration or for evaluation of changes to existing components, such as glazing or daylighting controls.
