Abstract
This paper introduces an ontology-based Digital Twin (DT) architecture for the lighting industry, integrating simulation models, data analytics, and visualization to represent luminaires. The ontology standardizes luminaire components, facilitating interoperability with design tools. The calculated ontology-level metrics suggest mid-level complexity with Size Of Vocabulary (SOV) at 37, Edge-to-Node Ratio (ENR) at 0.865, Tree Impurity (TIP) at 0, and Entropy Of Graph (EOG) at 2.61. A use case explores the utility of the ontology in the design phase across two different geographical locations, assessing environmental adaptability. The ontology captures opto-thermo-electric interactions, providing insights into luminaire performance. Results from inflating the DT and conducting simulations align with existing literature, indicating a degradation of around 12% over 8 years on the radiant flux. This ontology, up to the authors’ knowledge, is the first formal definition for the lighting industry, aiming to encompass the entire luminaire lifecycle. The current focus is on design and operational phases, with potential future enhancements to include real-time monitoring for performance evaluation and predictive maintenance. This work contributes to luminaire analysis and supports the development of sustainable lighting solutions in the industry.
