Abstract: A methodology for investigating the effect of a south oriented surface with varying inclination angle in reflecting natural light towards a north oriented glazing of a top lighting system is proposed for use under clear sky conditions. This was done based on mathematical simulation for a top lighting system. Results have shown the importance of the reflective surface in increasing the illuminance received on the glazing of the top lighting system.
