Development of a Tunnel Lighting System Based on Energy-Storage Luminescent Coatings
By utilizing the light-absorbing and luminescent characteristics of energy-storage luminescent materials,a self-made energy-storage luminescent coating is developed to address the problems of high energy consumption and the potential safety hazard of glare for drivers and passengers in existing tunnel lighting systems,which is com-bined with LED excitation lights and water ripple lamps to form the tunnel lighting system with soothing illumina-tion functions in the case of compliance with its physical and chemical performance testing.The system has been demonstrated and applied in the Huangjiawuji Tunnel of the Liupanshui-Weining section of the Duyun-Shangri-La Expressway and achieved better results compared to traditional lighting methods.After evaluation,the lighting system based on energy-storage luminescent coatings has safe,soothing,energy-saving and emergency advantages,and it can be widely promoted in tunnel lighting.
