Abstract
Solar decathlon is held biannually, and participant universities have a unique chance to locate solar houses on campus as a living lab after the contest. A variety of performance criteria are evaluated during the contest and daylighting is one among them. Complicated analysis tools, design solutions, and their effectiveness are major challenges during the design development of new solar houses. This challenge definition leads to developing a daylighting guideline for new solar house design. To provide a roadmap of validity of emerging daylighting metrics, demonstration of the daylighting performance of built-up solar houses, and daylighting guideline for design parameters with recent technology on new solar house design are the specific objectives of this study. The manuscript aims to examine the existing daylighting design tools while proposing a roadmap for how to use emerging metrics over solar house design. Three solar decathlon entries of a Midwest Public University are selected for post-occupancy evaluation to verify selected design tools. After analyze method, tools and final products are introduced which can be used on case studies, impact on research and education is discussed in the paper. Experiential method proposal for daylighting design have three phases and these are; the daylight metrics, the daylight performance and impact on research and education. It would be beneficial in the future to have this as a design guide, especially for any residential buildings rather than just solar houses.
