Development of Daylight Glare Analysis Method Using an Integrated Parametric Modelling Approach: A Comparative Study of Glare Evaluation Standards

Conducting lighting simulations to investigate performance, such as glare, is widely accepted and of particular interest in the design development stage. However, main challenge remains integrating performance metrics into a streamlined modelling evaluation workflow. With advancement digital technologies, an automatic workflow parametric studies with becomes feasible. This study investigates approach facilitate glare using China Green Building Standard example. Their adopted known daylight index (DGI) revised source definition calculation. An toolkit presented, demonstrating its applications sky model. Compared DGI, results articulate how can automate technical investigation clarifications for evaluation. Through simulation studies, differences limited metric scale sensitivity capturing window sizes on suggest future protocols environmental standard development.
