EFICIÊNCIA ENERGÉTICA EM SISTEMA DE ILUMINAÇÃO DE INTERIORES

Abstract

The electric power is the source for the progressof a nation; there is no economic or social grow withoutelectrical power. This paper presents suggestions to improvethe use of electrical power, called energy efficiency, definedas the relation between consumed or received power andgenerated. It was developed a study about the energyefficiency in internal illumination systems for workenvironment. For the analysis of the presented technologieselectric power consumption parameters, lightning conditionsof the work environment were considered, according to thetechnical and safety standards. To study the energyefficiency for internal illumination systems it is necessary toknow the luminaire-reactor-lamp set. Also are presented theresults of the simulations of the illumination condition inlaboratories areas used for didactic purpose, showing theimprovement of the efficiency of the illumination and theelectric power consumption.
