- Abstract
- Calculations of interior illuminance levels using the CEL-1 computer program are compared to measurements, for a typical office space. The comparisons are made for a wide range of sky conditions, solar intensities and seasonal intervals using a north facing window. The statistical uncertainty associated with the interior daylight calculations is examined and the sources of the uncertainty are discussed.
