Fórmula

Candela to Lumens

Lumens = Candela x 2pi x (1 - cos(theta/2))

Where theta is the beam angle in radians.

  • Candela measures intensity in a specific direction
  • Lumens measure total light output in all directions of the beam
  • A narrow-beam spotlight and a wide floodlight can have the same candela but very different lumens.

    Ejemplo Resuelto

    100 candela light source with 120° beam angle.

    1. 01theta/2 = 60° = pi/3 radians
    2. 02cos(60°) = 0.5
    3. 03Lumens = 100 x 2pi x (1 - 0.5) = 314.2 lumens

    Preguntas Frecuentes

    What is a candela?

    A candela is the SI unit of luminous intensity -- the amount of light emitted in a specific direction. One candela is roughly the light intensity of a common candle.

    Why does beam angle matter?

    A narrow beam concentrates light into a small cone, producing high candela from fewer lumens. A wide beam spreads the same lumens over a larger area, yielding fewer candela.
