The performance of solar bottle bulbs at different interior exposure levels

Different sizes and arrangements of solar bottle bulbs might greatly affect the lighting delivered and there is no general agreement on the best interior bottle exposure levels. This study was undertaken to examine the lighting performance of three prototype solar bottle bulbs and to compare their p...
