Computational Technology in Floodlighting Design

Once the lighting requirements are determined, the floodlighting design can proceed to the following three steps:

The first step is to determine the location of the floodlight, the required light distribution, and the characteristics of the light source based on the actual use.

The second step is to perform the necessary "lumen calculation" to meet the design requirements in order to determine the number of lamps required and the power load.

The third step is to use the "point-by-point calculation method" to determine the precise irradiation angle of the floodlight used, and give the required illuminance difference, and then make necessary modifications to the data of the initial design.

Although there are many methods to characterize the illuminance characteristics of floodlights, there is no unified data form that can be suitable for the light distribution or calculation method of various types of floodlights.

One factor that can affect the final illuminance value of the lighting device is the light loss caused by smoke, fog, etc. in the air. It changes with the season, weather, and location of the lamp, and must be considered when designing the illuminance value.
