Calculation of Candlepower and Color Temperature of Tungsten Lamps
Over the range of greatest interest in photography, the candlepower and color temperature of tungsten lamps may be calculated with satisfactory precision by the use of simple exponential equations. Detailed examples are given which illustrate the application of these equations. The constants and exponents in these equations have been determined for several commonly used lamps. These have been arranged in a set of tables designed for convenient reference.
