Deconstruct Lighting

Deconstruct a Lighting object into its constituient properties.

Inputs

name
Text string for the lighting display name.
watts_per_area
A numerical value for the lighting power density in Watts per square meter of floor area.
schedule
A fractional for the use of lights over the course of the year. The fractional values will get multiplied by the watts_per_area to yield a complete lighting profile.
radiant_fract
A number between 0 and 1 for the fraction of the total lighting load given off as long wave radiant heat.
visible_fract
A number between 0 and 1 for the fraction of the total lighting load given off as short wave visible light.
return_fract
A number between 0 and 1 for the fraction of the total lighting load that goes into the zone return air.
baseline
The baseline lighting power density in W/m2 of floor area. This baseline is useful to track how much better the installed lights are in comparison to a standard like ASHRAE 90.1.
