What Is This Tool?
This converter helps translate luminous intensity values between pentane candle (10 candle power) and candle (international) units. Both are historical, non-SI photometric units used before the adoption of the candela. It is especially helpful for historical research, museum studies, and understanding legacy lighting standards.
How to Use This Tool?
- Enter a value in pentane candle (10 candle power) unit
- Select the target unit as candle (international) [c]
- Initiate conversion to receive the equivalent luminous intensity
- Review results to support historical data analysis or technical interpretation
Key Features
- Simple conversion between pentane candle (10 candle power) and candle (international) units
- Supports interpretation of historical luminous intensity measurements
- Useful for analyzing older lighting literature and technical documents
- Browser-based and easy to access without installation
Examples
- 2 Pentane candle (10 candle power) converts to 20 Candle (international) [c]
- 0.5 Pentane candle (10 candle power) converts to 5 Candle (international) [c]
Common Use Cases
- Comparing light outputs described in 19th to early 20th century lighting literature
- Translating old photometric measurements that use candle-based units
- Interpreting and analyzing museum records or vintage lamp data
- Converting legacy lighting standards for historical study or engineering purposes
Tips & Best Practices
- Confirm the context is historical or academic as these units are obsolete
- Use this conversion to aid research on early lighting technologies and calibration standards
- Avoid applying conversions to modern photometric data since these units are non-SI
- Check source information to ensure correct interpretation of old luminous intensity values
Limitations
- Both pentane candle and candle (international) are obsolete, non-SI units
- Values may have minor variations due to historical calibration differences
- Conversion applies mainly in historical or academic settings
- Not suitable for modern photometric measurement or current lighting standards
Frequently Asked Questions
- What is the pentane candle (10 candle power)?
- It is a historical luminous intensity unit based on a standard candle burning pentane, equal to ten traditional candle power units.
- What does the candle (international) [c] represent?
- The international candle is an obsolete photometric unit once used as a luminous intensity reference lamp before the SI candela.
- Can this conversion be used for modern lighting measurements?
- No, these units are outdated and primarily used for historical interpretation rather than contemporary photometric data.
Key Terminology
- Pentane candle (10 candle power)
- A historical luminous intensity unit defined by a candle burning pentane, equal to 10 times the traditional candle unit.
- Candle (international) [c]
- An obsolete photometric unit once used as a luminous intensity reference before the SI candela was adopted.
- Luminous intensity
- A measure of the wavelength-weighted power emitted by a light source in a particular direction.
