Abstract

Purpose. To develop a new lighting system for children's sports complexes. The introduction of the developed technology will improve the state of illumination of outdoor sports grounds without creating light pollution and increasing additional energy-efficient costs.Methodology. The combined technique of the technology of using two types of light sources, namely: low-power LED floodlights and optical fiber with a single light source, allows you to create an energy-efficient field illumination system. The proposed solution can be used for full illumination of street children's complexes. The selection of the parameters of the lighting system was carried out on the example of a real sports and children's complex.Findings. The performed measurements of the real parameters of the existing sports ground and taking into account its geometry allowed us to calculate the light parameters of light sources, select the appropriate materials and create a complete lighting model. A new lighting technology for sports and children's complexes has been developed, the level of lighting of sports facilities has been improved without creating light pollution.Originality. For the first time, a combined technology of illumination of sports and children's playgrounds was proposed using optical fiber and LED floodlights. The introduction of the developed technology will improve the state of illumination of such structures without creating an unnecessary light load on residents who are near the site. Moreover, such lighting will not lead to an increase in additional energy costs.Practical value. Today, most outdoor sports and entertainment venues are devoid of any lighting. The proposed complex solution can be used in any existing field lighting system. It is the most efficient and electrically safe because the optical fiber does not conduct electricity, but light. The light source itself can be located remotely and protected from vandals.
