  2. Kelvin - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kelvin

    The kelvin now only depends on the Boltzmann constant and universal constants (see 2019 SI unit dependencies diagram), allowing the kelvin to be expressed as: [2] 1 kelvin = ⁠ 1.380 649 × 10 −23 / ( 6.626 070 15 × 10 −34 )( 9 192 631 770 ) ⁠ ⁠ h Δ ν Cs / k B ⁠ ≈ 2.266 6653 ⁠ h Δ ν Cs / k B ⁠ .

  3. Thermodynamic temperature - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermodynamic_temperature

    Thermodynamic temperature is a quantity defined in thermodynamics as distinct from kinetic theory or statistical mechanics.. Historically, thermodynamic temperature was defined by Lord Kelvin in terms of a macroscopic relation between thermodynamic work and heat transfer as defined in thermodynamics, but the kelvin was redefined by international agreement in 2019 in terms of phenomena that are ...

  4. Black-body radiation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black-body_radiation

    For example, a black body at room temperature (300 K) with one square meter of surface area will emit a photon in the visible range (390–750 nm) at an average rate of one photon every 41 seconds, meaning that, for most practical purposes, such a black body does not emit in the visible range. [24]

  5. SI base unit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SI_base_unit

    "The kelvin, symbol K, is the SI unit of thermodynamic temperature. It is defined by taking the fixed numerical value of the Boltzmann constant k to be 1.380 649 × 10 −23 when expressed in the unit J K −1 , which is equal to kg m 2 s −2 K −1 , where the kilogram, metre and second are defined in terms of h , c and ∆ ν Cs ."

  6. Heat equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heat_equation

    The temperature approaches a linear function because that is the stable solution of the equation: wherever temperature has a nonzero second spatial derivative, the time derivative is nonzero as well. The heat equation implies that peaks ( local maxima ) of u {\displaystyle u} will be gradually eroded down, while depressions ( local minima ...

  7. Temperature - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Temperature

    Since the standardization of the kelvin in the International System of Units, it has subsequently been redefined in terms of the equivalent fixing points on the Kelvin scale, so that a temperature increment of one degree Celsius is the same as an increment of one kelvin, though numerically the scales differ by an exact offset of 273.15.

  8. Architectural lighting design - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Architectural_lighting_design

    Incandescent light bulbs have a color temperature around 2700 to 3000 kelvin; daylight is around 6400 kelvin. Lower color temperature lamps have relatively more energy in the yellow and red part of the visible spectrum, while high color temperatures correspond to lamps with more of a blue-white appearance.

    A 230-volt LED filament lamp, with an E27 base. The filaments are visible as the eight yellow vertical lines. An assortment of LED lamps commercially available in 2010: floodlight fixtures (left), reading light (center), household lamps (center right and bottom), and low-power accent light (right) applications An 80W Chips on board (COB) LED module from an industrial light luminaire, thermally ...
