ABSTRACT

ABSTRACT:   The primary goal of the daylighting and shading system is to reduce the consumption of light and meet occupants’ visual comfort. Thinking for many related control systems, they were designed that based on different algorithms, architectural models, simulation software and evaluation systems to meet the requirement. For these considerations, there is a need to propose optimization programs and develop suitable control algorithms based on the control constraints, the control strategies and experimental models. This paper summarizes several control systems of the indoor visual comfortable environment and finally gives some recommendations for the future research. Presented current indoor visual environment control methods and the characteristics were analyzed in this paper, and it can be found that the automatic control strategy has great improved space for optimization by studying on an intelligent control method as well as its simulation.
