Abstract
The shooting algorithm employed in radiosity technique has been applied to the lighting calculation program COPHOS. Results of the predicted illuminance values obtained by using this procedure have been compared with established experimental data. It has been found that the calculated results are in good agreement with measured values and have an error of less than ± 10%.
