GONZALEZ GOMEZ, Rosalinda. ENERGETIC EFFICIENCY DERIVED FROM THE USE OF CONDUCTION COMPONENTS OF DAYLIGHT IN WARM-HUMID CLIMATE. Saber [online]. 2015, vol.27, n.4, pp.573-585. ISSN 2343-6468.

The electric energy saving was estimated by the utilization of Conduction Components of Daylight (CCD) in warm-humid climate. For this, the luminic performance of the component was determined, considering values of horizontal exterior lighting and interior lighting obtained by monitoring under real sky conditions in scale models, and the comparison with incandescent bulbs and Compact Fluorescent Lamps (CFL). The utilization of the natural light through CCLN allows to obtain a saving in the expense for energy, with respect to the use of Incandescent Bulb and/or Compact Fluorescent Lamp (artificial lighting). In this sense, their use would correspond to 219 KWh and to 54.75 KWh, respectively, if they are used for an average of 10 daily hours, during a period of one year. It was estimated that a possible reduction could be achieved in the electricity consumption, maintaining the comfort and quality of life of the users in buildings (high luminic performance without use of energy from commercial supplier), contributing this way to the "energy efficiency" in them.

Keywords : Energy saving; daylight; energy consumption; luminic performance.
