Abstract
In order to improve the convenience when using a ro-ro ferry, the lighting system used in the ship needs to be designed as conveniently as possible, especially in the accommodation deck. Therefore, the present study simulated and analyzed the lighting system in the accommodation spaces of a 750GT ro-ro ferry. The accommodation space was divided into 3 spaces which are front, middle, and rear spaces. A lighting analysis software named AGI32 was used to compute the lighting performance of each space. The number of lights installed in each space was determined using the room estimator function which is one of the features of the software. From the computation, it was found that the illuminance obtained from the simulation had a lower average than the one defined in the initial design. Moreover, it was also found that the middle accommodation space had the highest illuminance as compared to the other accommodation spaces.
