Bringing sun light into deep area of office or residential house rooms with simple arrangement of basic windows or sky facing windows is unattainable. To solve this problem light transport framework are important to bring sun light into the profound centres of structures. The main motive of this paper is to upgrade the performance of light transporting media (Horizontal transporting system) and Laser cut panel (LCP) as collector by simulation and study the performance of the various types of LCPs in which cuts are to be made on different angles(θ) i.e. 0°,5°,7°,8° and compare the performance of various LCPs of acrylic for South and East façade of the building in CSIO Chandigarh. It is cleared from the simulation that LCPs are location specific and its performance is depending upon the angle of cut (θ), aspect ratio(A), Refractive index.

Abstract


Bringing sun light into deep area of office or residential house rooms with simple arrangement of basic windows or sky facing windows is unattainable. To solve this problem light transport framework are important to bring sun light into the profound centres of structures. The main motive of this paper is to upgrade the performance of light transporting media (Horizontal transporting system) and Laser cut panel (LCP) as collector by simulation and study the performance of the various types of LCPs in which cuts are to be made on different angles(θ) i.e. 0°,5°,7°,8° and compare the performance of various LCPs of acrylic for South and East façade of the building in CSIO Chandigarh. It is cleared from the simulation that LCPs are location specific and its performance is depending upon the angle of cut (θ), aspect ratio(A), Refractive index.
