With the increased concern for energy conservation in recent years, much attention has been focused on lighting energy consumption and methods for reducing it. Along with this concern for energy efficient lighting has come the realization that lighting has profound effects on worker productivity as well as important aesthetic qualities. This book presents an introduction to lighting design and energy efficiency which can be utilized while maintaining the quality of illumination. Topics include lighting energy management, selection of lamps, task lighting, lighting design, lighting control, reflectors, ballast selection, natural daylighting, wireless lighting control, and case studies.
Updated to include new technology and new requirements, this comprehensive reference is a practical guide to the design, specification, and application of the latest lighting technology. It covers a range of topics from fundamentals of illumination to hands-on application. The full scope of light sources is examined; design methods for both indoor and outdoor lighting are presented, along with optimum application strategies for the lighting of merchandise, offices, industrial settings, parking lots, and streets. This third edition features a new chapter on rapidly advancing LED technology, explaining how solid state lighting is redefining light use and discussing various LED applications. The lighting controls chapter is revised to include new control technologies available in the marketplace. Updated specifications from IES and new requirements from the U.S. Department of Energy are also covered.
