Veronica - Lighting Design C3

The document discusses prediction models for light pipe systems. It introduces mathematical modeling of light pipes and available daylight, including solar radiation and sky models to determine sky types and luminance distribution. Sky geometry and solar position are examined. Models are presented for transmission of light through laser cut panels and mirror light pipes, as well as light extraction and emitter theories. The chapter concludes with an introduction to developing these predictive models.
