Energy Effective Industrial Illuminating Systems: Design and Engineering Considerations

---

Lighting retrofit projects provide illuminating engineers a great opportunity to improve the lighting quality and enhance workers’ visual performance and productivity in spaces where inefficient, poor quality lighting systems now exist. About three years ago, the EPA announced the green light program. Today, more than 700 lighting industry suppliers have signed up to participate. In announcing the program, the director equates energy effectiveness in lighting with better lighting quality, higher worker productivity, enhanced profitability and reduction of pollution. These are noble and well defined goals. In logical sequence for goal satisfaction, the engineer should proceed with his project by first recognizing the workers’ visual task requirements and then making an appropriate design analysis of the proposed system whether new or retrofitting. Only the appropriate design approach can lead to energy/cost savings, and, more importantly, enhance the workers’ visual performance and productivity as well.rnThe author’s extensive pioneering experience in designing energy effective illuminating systems and numerous retrofitting projects has built a solid foundation for the preparation of this book. It is hoped that practicing engineers all over the world will make good use of the helpful information presented in the book. The author believe that a better environment will be created as the result of these collective efforts in designing and implementing energy effective illuminating systems everywhere.rnThis refernce is specifacally written to provide much needed guidance to engineers and managers involved in efforts to improve lighting system performance and reduce lighting related energy consumption in any type of manufacturing or industrial workspace. The presentation guide the reader through the process of simultaneously improving lighting quality and enhancing workers’ visual performance. The text is loaded with practical information on lighting controls, daylighting, floodlighting, and the full range of options vailable to improve energy performance. Specification guidelines are provided for both new installations and retrofits. Case studies illustrate typical energy savings for various type of lighting options. Applicable standards are also addressed.rnThis comprehensive reference provides a practical, fully illustrated guide to the design, specification and application of state of the art lighting, from the fundamentals of illumination to hands on applications. A full range of light sources are examined, including metal halide, high pressure sodium, low pressure sodium, fluorescent, and incandescent lamps. Basic design methods for both indoor and outdoor lighting are presented. Special emphasis is placed on retrofit devices such as reflectors, lenses and controls which can be used to lower lighting costs. Applications for merchandise, offices and industrial lighting are examined.rnThis reference covers the full scope of energy management techniques and applications for new and existing buildings, with emphasis on the systems approach to energy management. Building structural considerations are examined, such as heat loss and gain, windows, and insulation. A thorough discussion of heating and cooling system optimization strategiesis provided. Also covered are energy conservation measures for lighting systems, water systems and electrical systems. Specific energy management applications are discussed in detail, including solar energy systems, energy management systems, and alternative energy technologies.rn
