  2. Color rendering index - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Color_rendering_index

    A color rendering index ( CRI) is a quantitative measure of the ability of a light source to reveal the colors of various objects faithfully in comparison with a natural or standard light source. Color rendering, as defined by the International Commission on Illumination (CIE), is the effect of an illuminant on the color appearance of objects ...

  3. Dry-bulb temperature - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dry-bulb_temperature

    The dry-bulb temperature ( DBT) is the temperature of air measured by a thermometer freely exposed to the air, but shielded from radiation. [ 1] DBT is the temperature that is usually thought of as air temperature, and it is the true thermodynamic temperature. It is directly proportional to the mean kinetic energy of the air molecules.

  4. High-CRI LED lighting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High-CRI_LED_lighting

    High-CRI LED lighting is a light-emitting diode (LED) lighting source that offers a high color rendering index (CRI). CRI is a quantitative measure of a light's ability to reproduce the colors of objects faithfully in comparison with an ideal or natural light source. In general terms, CRI is a measure of a light source's ability to show object ...

  5. Color temperature - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Color_temperature

    Color temperature is a parameter describing the color of a visible light source by comparing it to the color of light emitted by an idealized opaque, non-reflective body. The temperature of the ideal emitter that matches the color most closely is defined as the color temperature of the original visible light source.

  6. Psychrometrics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Psychrometrics

    Hygrometer. Dry / Wet-bulb temperature. v. t. e. Psychrometrics (or psychrometry, from Greek ψυχρόν (psuchron) 'cold' and μέτρον (metron) 'means of measurement'; [ 1][ 2] also called hygrometry) is the field of engineering concerned with the physical and thermodynamic properties of gas - vapor mixtures .

  7. Heat index - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heat_index

    The heat index ( HI) is an index that combines air temperature and relative humidity, in shaded areas, to posit a human-perceived equivalent temperature, as how hot it would feel if the humidity were some other value in the shade. For example, when the temperature is 32 °C (90 °F) with 70% relative humidity, the heat index is 41 °C (106 °F ...

  8. Wet-bulb temperature - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wet-bulb_temperature

    The wet-bulb temperature ( WBT) is the temperature read by a thermometer covered in cloth which has been soaked in water at ambient temperature (a wet-bulb thermometer) and over which air is passed. [ 1] At 100% relative humidity, the wet-bulb temperature is equal to the air temperature ( dry-bulb temperature ); at lower humidity the wet-bulb ...

  9. GU24 lamp fitting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GU24_lamp_fitting

    A GU24 lamp fitting is a bi-pin connector for compact fluorescent lamps (CFL) or LED lamps that uses a bayonet mount –like twist-lock bi-pin connector instead of the Edison screw fitting used on many CFLs, LED lamps and incandescent light bulbs. The design was initiated by the U.S. EPA and the Lighting Research Center in 2004, in order to ...
