EFFECT OF LIGHTING SYSTEMS ON ENERGY CONSUMPTION OF AIR CONDITIONING.

Summary

ENERGETICALLY OPTIMUM REALIZATION OF THE DESIRED MICROCLIMATE OF AIR-CONDITIONED ROOMS MAY BE SIGNIFICANTLY AFFECTED BY HEAT GAIN FROM LIGHTING AND BY HEAT GAIN/LOSS FROM VENTILATION. FOR INSTANCE IN OFFICE-TYPE BUILDINGS, LIGHTING MAY ACCOUNT FOR 10 TO 45%, WHILE VENTILATION FOR 25 TO 70% OF THE COOLING LOAD. CONVENIENTLY SELECTING THE LIGHTING SYSTEM -DAYLIGHTING, ARTIFICIAL OR COMBINED LIGHTING -AND REASONABLE OPERATION MAY LEAD TO AN AIR-CONDITIONING AND LIGHTING SYSTEM OPTIMUM FOR INVESTMENT AND ENERGY CONSUMPTION.
