What Is This Tool?
This unit converter allows you to transform illumination values measured in the historical unit centimeter-candle into the informal unit flame. It helps interpret old photometric data into more qualitative and descriptive lighting terms suitable for informal or field settings.
How to Use This Tool?
- Enter the illumination value in centimeter-candle units
- Select the target unit as flame
- Click the convert button to get the equivalent flame value
- Use the result for qualitative or descriptive lighting assessments
Key Features
- Converts between the obsolete centimeter-candle and informal flame units of illumination
- Supports historical and qualitative lighting interpretations
- Includes examples to illustrate typical conversions
- Browser-based and easy to use for quick conversions
- Useful in fields like conservation, firefighting, archaeology, and research
Examples
- 2 centimeter-candle [cm*c] equals approximately 464.5152 flame
- 0.5 centimeter-candle [cm*c] converts to about 116.1288 flame
Common Use Cases
- Interpreting legacy photometric data measured in centimeter-candle
- Translating precise historical illumination figures into informal light descriptions
- Qualitative lighting assessments in archaeological or anthropological research
- Estimating light conditions in safety, firefighting, and outdoor fieldwork
- Understanding older optical instrument lighting specifications
Tips & Best Practices
- Use this converter when precise lux measurements are unavailable or unnecessary
- Apply results mainly for qualitative or informal lighting descriptions
- Refer to historical context when working with centimeter-candle values
- Be aware of the approximate nature of conversion to flame due to lack of standardization
Limitations
- Flame is not a formal or standardized unit, limiting measurement precision
- Centimeter-candle is obsolete and replaced by lux in modern applications
- Conversion outcomes are approximate and may not match actual perceived brightness
Frequently Asked Questions
- What is a centimeter-candle?
- A centimeter-candle is an outdated unit of illuminance that represented the light on a surface one centimetre from a point source of one candle, historically used in photometry.
- Why convert from centimeter-candle to flame?
- Conversion to flame helps translate precise historical lighting data into informal, qualitative terms useful in fieldwork or non-technical contexts.
- Is flame a standard measurement unit?
- No, flame is an informal light descriptor without standardization, often used as a rough reference for light from open flames.
Key Terminology
- Centimeter-candle [cm*c]
- An obsolete illuminance unit representing light on a surface one centimetre from a point source of one candle, historically used in photometry.
- Flame
- An informal, non-standard light descriptor referring to illumination from an open combustion source, mainly used for qualitative assessments.
- Illuminance
- The amount of light falling on a surface, measured in various units including lux, centimeter-candle, and informally as flame.
