- Conversion accuracy depends on the precision of the original historic data.
- Uncertainties may arise if the measurement context from the past is not well documented.
Frequently Asked Questions
- Why is the blondel unit obsolete?
- Blondel was used in early 20th-century photometry but has been replaced by the SI unit candela per square meter for standardized luminance measurements.
- What is the candela per square meter?
- Candela per square meter is the SI unit for luminance, quantifying surface brightness as luminous intensity per projected area.
- When should I convert blondel to candela per square meter?
- Conversions are useful for comparing historical luminance data with contemporary measurements in lighting design and photometry.
Key Terminology
- Blondel
- An obsolete photometric unit of luminance used historically, replaced by the candela per square meter.
- Candela per square meter
- The SI unit of luminance representing luminous intensity per unit area, commonly used in display and lighting measurements.
- Luminance
- A measurement of luminous intensity emitted or reflected by a surface per unit area in a given direction.
