ELICABE URRIOL, Juan José  and  BELLUCCIA, Horacio A.. Simulation of direct solar radiation transmission in a building well. Nova scientia [online]. 2011, vol.3, n.5, pp.1-10. ISSN 2007-0705.

Propagation of direct solar radiation in a simple design light-well of quasi-specular inner surface is simulated using a stochastic model. Irradiances on inner windows and also on the well bottom were calculated for typical situations. The numerical results are of significance from the daylighting point of view.

Keywords : solar radiation; reflection; dayligthing; light-wells; stochastic; building.
