Illuminance and Color Temperature Definitions

Phuc Gia® is an organization that provides information and definitions regarding illuminance and color temperature to organizations and enterprises, especially consumers who are interested in illuminance and color temperature. Therefore, to gain more useful information about illuminance and color temperature, please refer to the article below by Phuc Gia®!

Illuminance: Illuminance is a quantity characterizing the illuminated surface; it is the density of luminous flux on a surface with area (S). This means it is the density of luminous flux from a light source of 1 lumen over an area of 1m². When the surface is illuminated non-uniformly, the illuminance is calculated as the arithmetic mean of the illuminance at various points.

Symbol: E

Unit: Lux (Lx)

Table of Illuminance on some commonly encountered surfaces

Lighting Environment Illuminance (lux)
Outdoors at Noon (Sunny) 100.000
Outdoors at Noon (Cloudy/Overcast) 10.000
Standard Full Moon 0,25
Office Room/Workspace 300-500
Classroom 300-400
Street at Night (Nighttime Roadway) 20-50
  • Exitance M, lumen/m² (lm/m²): The Luminous Exitance at a point on an emitting surface M is the luminous flux emitted by a unit area at that point; it is the ratio between the luminous flux emitted by a surface element containing that point and its area.

Unit for Radiant Exitance: Watt/m² (W/m²);

Unit for Luminous Exitance: lumen/m² (lm/m²).

  • Color Temperature (K): The Color Temperature of a light source, expressed on the Kelvin (K) scale, is the expression of the color of the light it emits. Imagine an iron bar: when cool, it is black; when heated steadily, it glows orange; continued heating turns it yellow; and continued heating until it becomes “warm white”. At any point during this heating process, we can measure the temperature of the steel bar in degrees Kelvin (0ºC corresponds to 273.15K) and assign that value to the color produced.

For incandescent lamps, the color temperature is precisely the temperature of the filament itself. For fluorescent lamps, discharge lamps (generally, all non-incandescent lights), the color temperature is only representative, determined by comparison with the equivalent temperature of a heated black body. When speaking of a lamp’s color temperature, one immediately gets the feeling of whether the light source is “warm,” “neutral,” or “cool.” Generally, the lower the temperature, the warmer the source, and vice versa. To better illustrate this, let’s consider some color temperature values:

25000K – 3000K: Sunset, incandescent lamps.

45000K – 50000K: Cloudy daylight (overcast sky).

60000K – 10.0000K: Light from a very cloudy sky (cool light).

In lighting terminology, it does not strictly use the temperature scale like ºC, but rather uses it to indicate the light’s color spectrum.

Table of Color Temperature of some light sources

Light Source Color Temperature (K)
Blue Sky 10.000-30.000
Overcast Sky Light 6000-8000
Daylight Fluorescent Lamp 6200
Warm White Fluorescent Lamp 3000
Metal Halide Lamp 4100
Incandescent Lamp 2500
Candle Flame 1800
