Development of the Specular Reflector Optical Design Program for Flourescent Luminaires |
Abstract |
SpeROD, the optical design program, is developed for specular reflectors of fluorescent luminaries. SpeROD can save much time when to design specular reflectors. SpeROD calculates conditions 2-dimensionally. The conditions for designing reflectors considered in this program are the intensity distribution, reflector type, and Tangent Spiral Design method Using SpeROD, uniform intensity distribution type and bat-wing type reflectors are simulated in this paper, and 26mm(T8) diameter fluorescent lamp and 150mm width reflector are used for the setting. The same setting was simulated in FIELD, the intensity distribution prediction program, and the result represented the intensity distribution and the efficacy simulated in SpeROD were satisfactory. |
