Program for Sustainable Designs of led lighting systems

Abstract

Computer Program made in MATLAB that allows sustainable designs of lighting systems with Led lamps for different user requirements. The program requires as data the dimensions, reflectance, cavities and the desired lighting level of the work area to be illuminated and the type of LED luminaire to be used. The calculations are carried out in a deterministic, precise and exact way, using the lumens method and the Official Mexican Standard for lighting designs. The program provides information such as the total number of luminaires to be used, the calculated lux level, the electrical power density, among others, as well as a graph that indicates an adequate design for the accommodation and distribution of the lamps in the work area to be illuminated. , complying with the Lighting Design Standards. The program correctly performs each of the calculations and at the end delivers the most suitable design for the accommodation of the lamps and their distances. Correct lighting means achieving an optimal balance between human needs, architectural considerations and energy efficiency.
