POINT IN TIME GLARE ANALYSIS
Figure 3: Point in Time Glare Analysis for Two Views on July 15 at 4pm.
The area of glare for the clerestory is small compared to the area of glare from the view window. Figure 7 and Figure 8 show a intermediate study to determine whether or not the opaque shade for the clerestory was necessary. The comparison of
falsecolor visualizations for the view facing the window point in time glare analysis for July 15th at 4pm for the base shading state as well as the dynamic shading state shows that the shade dramatically reduces the glare but does not eliminate glare from
the upper clerestory.
Annual Glare Analysis was performed before DA analysis with dynamic shading so the DGP schedules could be used from viewpoints facing the window, instead of nodes. Three views were chosen, all facing the window, and the user was allowed to
adapt by 45 degrees for glare analysis.

Assignment 8 – Glare, View and Dynamic Shading
Task 8.1 + 8.3 Dynamic Shade Design through Glare and Daylight Autonomy Analysis
Annual glare analysis from two different viewpoints, one facing the large view window and one facing away from it, shows that visual
comfort of occupants facing the window is a concern for mid to late afternoon for most of the year (Figure 1 and Figure 2). Each of
these viewpoints were simulated separately, but programmed so users could adapt their position by 45°. Point in time glare analysis
shows that the window is a source of intolerable glare for users facing the window, with the DGP registering at 76% but is
imperceptible for users facing away from the window, with a DGP of 25% (Figure 3).
Once the major source of glare was identified using point in time glare analysis, a field of view that was most susceptible to glare was
established for users facing the window and a smaller area of glare at the clerestory (Figure 4). That field of view determined the
location of the exterior dynamic shading system (Figure 5). The system required the addition of framing elements and consists of an
opaque retractable panel (50% reflectance) located just above the clerestory window so that direct light is cut off but diffuse light from
the front and sides may still enter, and a vertical opaque panel (50% reflectance) that operates to block only the lower view window
field during periods of intolerable glare (Figure 6). The panels are offset 4 inches parallel from the outer fixed panels so as not to
obstruct what little view this façade provides.

Figure 8: Point in Time Glare Analysis for Both Views with Dynamic Shade Engaged. July 15 at 4pm.
Shade operation (Figure 9) is consistent with glare seen from the view facing the window, shown in Figure 1, where almost
every afternoon the shades are drawn. Still, even with the dynamic shade employed, some direct intolerable glare still occurs, especially in December and February (Figure 11). To cut out this glare might entail restricting the view further. The original
design intent for the diagonal clerestory shade was to reflect morning light into the clerestory, but the operation of the opaque horizontal shade precludes this from happening, so in further design iterations, this part of the static shading system could be
re-designed so a horizontal dynamic shade is not needed.
Daylight Autonomy comparisons between the base and dynamic shading states show that with manual dynamic shade
operation (Figure 9) , DA300lux[50%] remains at 82% during occupied hours, with all work stations still effectively daylit (Error! Reference source not found.). The UDI also remains nearly the same at 94%. It is interesting that no decrease in DA
occurred with the shade operation. One explanation might have to do with what happens to the clerestory when the shades are engaged. Also note: For the base shading state, the DA analysis was re-run from the previous assignment, due to slight
changes in the shade armature and interior wall configurations. The DA for the base state decreased from 86% to 82%.
