What Is This Tool?
This converter allows you to translate luminous intensity values measured in the obsolete candle (German) unit into the candle (international) unit, facilitating understanding of historical photometric data.
How to Use This Tool?
- Enter the luminous intensity value in candle (German)
- Select the source unit as candle (German) [c (German)]
- Choose candle (international) [c] as the target unit
- Submit to get the equivalent value in candle (international)
Key Features
- Converts luminous intensity from candle (German) to candle (international)
- Based on historical standards for photometric measurements
- Supports restoration, archival, and engineering research purposes
- Includes example calculations for clarity
Examples
- 5 candle (German) converts to approximately 5.26 candle (international)
- 10 candle (German) converts to approximately 10.53 candle (international)
Common Use Cases
- Interpreting and comparing 19th–early 20th-century German lighting specifications
- Converting historical lamp measurements for restoration or museum documentation
- Analyzing legacy photometric standards in archival research
- Translating older lighting data for engineering applications
Tips & Best Practices
- Use this conversion primarily for historical or reference purposes
- Consider the original lamp standardization quality when interpreting results
- Refer to SI candela units for modern photometric measurements
- Double-check conversion values when applying them to technical documentation
Limitations
- Both units are outdated and superseded by the SI candela
- Conversion accuracy may vary due to historical lamp differences
- Not suitable for contemporary photometric measurements
- Intended mainly for historical interpretation and archival research
Frequently Asked Questions
- Why convert from candle (German) to candle (international)?
- This conversion helps interpret and compare luminous intensity data from historical German standards within the broader international context used in older photometric literature.
- Are candle (German) and candle (international) units still used today?
- No, both units are obsolete and have been replaced by the SI candela for consistency and accuracy in modern measurements.
- Can this conversion be used for modern engineering designs?
- Conversions are primarily for historical reference; modern engineering should use SI units like the candela.
Key Terminology
- Candle (German) [c (German)]
- An obsolete German luminous intensity unit originally based on a standardized flame, used historically in German-speaking countries.
- Candle (international) [c]
- A historic photometric unit representing luminous intensity of a specified standard lamp, used internationally before the candela.
- Candela
- The modern SI unit of luminous intensity that replaced earlier units like candle (German) and candle (international).
