Common Use Cases
- Interpreting historical lighting specifications from Germany and Austria
- Translating older luminous intensity measurements to modern SI units
- Restoring or calibrating antique photometric instruments referencing hefner candle
- Comparing lighting levels in archival studies and lighting research
Tips & Best Practices
- Remember the hefner candle is obsolete and mainly useful for historical data
- Use modern units like candela or lumen/steradian for current lighting specifications
- Check experimental conditions when working with hefner candle values to understand possible inconsistencies
- Apply this conversion tool primarily for archival and research purposes
Limitations
- Hefner candle is no longer used in contemporary photometry
- Variations in historical definitions may cause minor inconsistencies
- Modern instruments and standards use candela or lumen/steradian units exclusively
- Conversions are mostly relevant for interpreting legacy measurements
Frequently Asked Questions
- What does lumen per steradian measure?
- Lumen per steradian measures luminous intensity, representing the visible light power emitted per unit solid angle and is numerically equal to the candela.
- Why convert lumen/steradian to hefner candle?
- This conversion helps interpret historical lighting data originally measured in hefner candles, enabling comparisons with modern SI units.
- Is the hefner candle still used in lighting specifications?
- No, the hefner candle is an obsolete unit replaced by candela and lumen per steradian in modern photometric standards.
Key Terminology
- Lumen per steradian [lm/sr]
- A unit of luminous intensity equal to one candela, indicating visible light power emitted per unit solid angle.
- Hefner candle
- An obsolete unit of luminous intensity defined by a standardized lamp from historical German-speaking regions, now replaced by the candela.
- Luminous intensity
- The measure of visible light power emitted in a particular direction per unit solid angle.
