New Illuminance Determination Procedure: Specification

New Illuminance Determination Procedure: Specification

New Illuminance Determination Procedure: Adaptation • Research in Visual Performance at Mesopic Adaptation under illuminances of different spectra –Realistic and simulated tasks –Reaction time measurements –Mesopic adaptation states –Various spectra • Photometry Based on Intermediate (mesopic) v( ) Functions Predicts Reaction Times

New Illuminance Determination Procedure: Adaptation Scotopic Adaptation Luminance < 0.001 cd/m2

Mesopic Adaptations 0.001 cd/m2 < Luminance < 10 cd/m2

Photopic Adaptation Luminance > 10 cd/m2

New Illuminance Determination Procedure: Adaptation • Adaptation State –Expressed as a Photopic Luminance

• Spectrum –Expressed as a Ratio of Scotopic to Photopic Lumens

New Illuminance Determination Procedure: Adaptation • The New Handbook recommends the Average Photopic Luminance in the Field of View be used to Determine the State of Adaptation

New Illuminance Determination Procedure: Adaptation • The New Handbook recommends that the Spectrum be specified by its S/P

• S/P: Ratio of Scotopic to Photopic Lumens –A single number that indicates the relative amount of short wavelength optical radiation in a spectrum S( )

Scotopic Lumens –S/P =

= Photopic Lumens

1700  S( ) v’()d 683  S( ) v()d

New Illuminance Determination Procedure: Adaptation • The New Handbook recommends the use of Mesopic Multipliers to Scale Photopic Recommended Illuminances –Multipliers depend on adaptation state –Multipliers depend on spectrum, as expressed by S/P –Multipliers provide the transformation (scaling) from mesopic to photopic photometry –All analyses uses only photopic photometry

New Illuminance Determination Procedure: Adaptation Luminance (0.03) Source S/P (1.81)

Recommendation multiplier (0.70)

New Illuminance Determination Procedure: Adaptation • Mesopic Multipliers can be used to: –Determine how the State of Adaptation and

–The Spectrum of the Proposed Lighting System –Modify a Photopic Recommended Illuminance

• Mesopic Multipliers should NOT be used to modify Photopic Recommended Illuminances in Applications where Vehicular Traffic Moves at Speeds > 40 kph (25 mph)

New Illuminance Determination Procedure: Adaptation Determining a Mesopic Multiplier Requires Estimating the Adaptation Luminance The Average Luminance in the Field of View can be Used as the Adaptation Luminance.

New Illuminance Determination Procedure: Adaptation Recall that if a surface is diffusely reflective with a reflectance of ρ and enjoys an average illuminance of E, then its average luminance L is:

 LE  If the illuminance is in lux, the luminance will be candela/m2

New Illuminance Determination Procedure: Adaptation If Other Information is not Available, it is Reasonable to Assume that: –The photopic illuminance recommendation, Erec, will be produced by a proposed lighting system –Thus, the average surface illuminance will be the recommended photopic illuminance, Erec

–The average surface luminance will be

L  Erec

 

New Illuminance Determination Procedure: Adaptation •The Adaptation Luminance Depends on How Much of the Field of View the Surface Fills –A parking garage floor that fills ½ the field of view –The other ½ of the field is assumed to be the dark sky with a luminance of essentially zero –This would produce an adaptation luminance, La, of

1 1  La  L  Erec 2 2 

New Illuminance Determination Procedure: Adaptation •For Multiple Surfaces, the Average Luminance Depends on the Luminance and Apparent Size of Each –The full field of view is 5 steradians in solid angle –If, for example, there are 3 surfaces with luminances L1, L2, and L3, and – 1 , 2 , 3 are the solid angles subtended to the observer by the surfaces, –then the adaptation luminance, La, is

L1 1  L2  2  L3 3 La  5

New Illuminance Determination Procedure: Adaptation •Most of us will probably let Lighting Calculation Software make these calculations for us
