Abstract

The analysis of a machine-luminaire configuration is a time-consuming process requiring the construction of a machine mock-up, installation of a designated lighting arrangement, and an extensive set of illumination measurements. This entire process, however, is well suited to computer analysis. By simulating the machine geometry and the characteristics of the desired luminaires, the incident light levels can be calculated at the required set of points. This paper presents a general description of the techniques involved in performing this simulation.
