Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Study of Direct and Indirect Illumination In order to compare different systems of illumination there must be some means of comparison. Consequently we have the candle power, foot candle, mean spherical candle and etc. The candle power is the unit by which the intensity of a source is measured. Thus a light is said to have an intensity of one candle power when it has the same intensity as a sperm candle which burns 20 grams of sperm in 10 minutes. This is the English unit of intensity. The German unit is 9 of the English. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This book was released on 2017-10-26 with total page 86 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Comparison of Indirect and Direct Illumination: Thesis for the Degree of Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engineering; College of Engineering, University of Illinois, 1912 Illumination may be classified under two heads, useful and scenic. Useful illumination is used for carrying on work, taking the place of daylight. Scenic illumination applies to all forms of decorative lighting such as the stage, etc. The two as a rule are not distinct, but usually combine with one another. Until the introduction of the electric light about a quarter of a century ago, flames were the only source of artificial light. The electric light has brought a great change in the method of illumination, making it a science as well as an art.

Book Synopsis Street Illumination of Champaign by : Edward Myron Jasper
Download or read book Street Illumination of Champaign written by Edward Myron Jasper and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-10-26 with total page 78 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Street Illumination of Champaign: Thesis If a light source has an average intensity in all directions of one candle-power, the light from that source is equal to one mean spherical candle-power, or simply one mean spherical candie. The density of the light flux falling upon a surface is termed the illumination of that surface. The unit of illumination, as commonly used in this country, is the foot-candle and denotes the illumination at a surface, every point of which is one foot from a light source whose luminous intensity is one candlepower. A term closely connected with the term illumination, and which is of great importance in lighting is luminosity. From the definition given above, illumination is the measure of the light flux which falls upon or strikes a surface. Luminosity is a measure of the density of the light flux given out or diffused by a surface. The relation between the two terms is that the luminosity of a surface reflecting or diffusing light is equal to the illumination received by the surface multiplied by a constant called its coefficient of absorption. This principle has a decided bearing upon the use of frosted or Opaque globes surrounding light sources and also upon indirect illumination.

Book Synopsis Illumination and Photometry (Classic Reprint) by : William Elgin Wickenden
Download or read book Illumination and Photometry (Classic Reprint) written by William Elgin Wickenden and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-08-04 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Illumination and Photometry The preparation of this volume was undertaken with a view to providing an adequate text-book of the subject for the use of colleges of engineering. It is not intended to be a handbook of technical data nor a manual of practical instructions. Emphasis is therefore given to the scientific basis of the subject and to methods of rational analysis rather than to the description of processes of manufacture, structural details and prevailing practice. A condensed form of treatment has been sought throughout. In the work of instruction much of the subject-matter may profitably be amplified by lectures, supplementary reading and the working out of problems. Familiarity with the technique of photometry should be sought in the laboratory in connection with such a course. The material herein contained to a large extent represents the basis of a course in Illumination and Photometry given by the University of Wisconsin, and the author acknowledges with pleasure much helpful encouragement and many suggestions from Prof. Murray C. Beebe of that institution. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book Synopsis Illumination by : Alexander Pelham Trotter
Download or read book Illumination written by Alexander Pelham Trotter and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-07-28 with total page 318 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Illumination: Its Distribution and Measurement This book is intended to advance the subject of illuminating engineering or the art of directing and adapting light. It is divided into three parts. The first deals with the primary and the derived units of light, the theory of the distribution of illumination and the application of that theory to the spacing and the height of lamps. The second part describes instruments and methods employed for measuring light and illumination. The last part gives a few practical examples of the measurement of illumination. "The art of illumination," wrote Count Rumford in the year 1789, "although it is undoubtedly one of the most useful that has been invented by man, and contributes perhaps more than any other to his comfort and convenience in all countries and in every class of society, has not even been considered as an art; for the technical terms have not been invented which are indispensably necessary in order to render it possible to treat of it in a clear and satisfactory manner." One hundred and three years later, on May 10, 1892, a paper, of which the present volume is an expansion, was read before the Institution of Civil Engineers, was awarded a Telford Medal and a Telford Premium, and was published in volume ex. of the Proceedings of the Institution. The subject still continued to attract little attention, and after sixteen years, at the invitation of Mr. Leon Gaster, and with the permission of the Council of the Institution of Civil Engineers, the Paper was rewritten and appeared in The Illuminating Engineer.

Download or read book Illumination written by Sidney Farnsworth and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-12 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Illumination: And Its Development in the Present Day Chapters on the further development of illumina tion, the illumination of the printed book, and printed book decoration, are also amongst the additions. The chapters on the application of lettering and decoration from the commercial standpoint have also been developed considerably, and at the end of the book some notes have been added on books for further study. I have tried to write in as simple a manner as possible, so that the youngest student should have no difficulty in understanding the instructions that are given. So many books have been written on the subject of Illumination that it may seem quite superfluous to add yet another to the long list. Still, I think that a work treating the matter from the present-day stand point ought to be of some service to the student who is desirous of practising this art to-day. I have felt for some time past that there was a need for a work that would deal with the various ways in which this art could be applied in a time like the present. I have found that most of the books that have been written on Illumination treat the subject either from the standpoint of the archaeologist or merely from that of the amateur. It is simply the result of a sincere desire to supply what I feel to be a real need that this book has been written, and in the hope that it may serve as a handbook and guide for the serious worker. It has not been written with the idea of introducing a quick and easy method of becoming expert in the art of illumination. Success, in this, as in anything else of importance, can come only through hard work. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Practical Illumination Before going into the details of the various points involved in artificial lighting, a short statement of some of the principal reasons why present attempts at efficient illumination are so often found faulty will aid to an understanding of the subject. One reason why much light is wasted is that frequently too much of the light goes in directions where it is not needed and too little in directions where it is needed. If light coming from a lamp were a tangible thing, as, for example, water coming from a hose, failure to direct it where needed would be more apparent than it is. No one would think of trying to wash windows, flush off pavements or do similar work calling for a concentrated stream of water with a hose fitted with a lawn sprinkler which throws a gentle spray in all directions. Nor would one think of using a nozzle giving a powerful stream on a flower bed or a soft, newly-made lawn. The light thrown in different directions around a lamp can be modified with globes and reflectors just as the direction and character of a stream of water issuing from a hose can be modified bv the nozzle. The important point is to pick the right kind of nozzle and the right kind of reflector or globe for the particular work in hand. Although a certain amount of light on ceilings and walls is a good thing, it is quite likely to be the case that a much larger proportion of the total light goes in those directions than is at all necessary, while a smaller proportion than is necessary is thrown in places where it can be utilized. On the other hand, there are cases where the reverse of this is true. It is of first importance to know what effects various reflectors, shades and globes will produce. Much attention is therefore given to this in following chapters. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
