Testing and Calculation of Solar Light Pipes of USTB Gymnasium

Article Preview

Abstract:

In this paper, the principle and structure of the solar light pipe systems are introduced, and applications in USTB gymnasium are also included. The internal illuminance of USTB gymnasium is calculated using two different methods, which are utilization factor method and measuring method. In the end, the prospect of the solar light pipe systems in the future is also predicted.
