this paper presents a novel reflecting freeform surface component which adopts both artificial light and natural light as input, which component is a part of the NLIS (Natural Light Illumination System). The use of reflective elements significantly reduces the thickness of the structure; avoid high cost and installation restrictions. By this design, the illumination has 80.1% of uniformity and 83.82% of efficiency.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
