Minimize light pollution 16 8 Lighting power distribution of some common exterior sources 17 Beware of “average foot candles” Be sure to look at uniformity ratios. Sometimes the less uniform area will have higher average numbers, because the hot spots (usually under the fixture) are very high. 18 9 The quality of light will have a large impact on our visual ability. Electric light sources vary widely in their spectral content, and should be carefully selected for their color characteristics. This is an extreme example – Metal Halide & Low Pressure Sodium - but the spectral composition of any light source will affect our perception of the surfaces around us. 19 LEDs and color The blue white color temperature looks like metal halide, or “moonlight” which can make them a good fit for exterior applications*.

LEDs are a light source. Light sources have a variety of characteristics LEDs are not a design strategy. Any lighting measure may be appropriate for one application, but not another. 35 Comparing LED to Metal Halide Advantages Long life Higher light quality (in general) More optical possibilities Disadvantages High cost Higher delivered lumens per watt (particularly at Still a new technology lower wattages) (there may be surprises…) Instant on (no strike time) Higher complexity (perhaps more to fail) Better control possibilities Uncertainty about system Solid State life and replacement Moderate lumen depreciation 36 http://www.premierltg.com/light-fights-led-vs-hid/ 18 Exterior Design Issues Like all lighting design, successful exterior lighting is found in applying light where it is desired, and keeping it away from where it is not. Maria Pita Square La Coruna, Spain Exterior luminaires Many communities are looking for “human scale” exterior luminaires in parks and downtown areas. 19 Wasted light = wasted energy and money... and it can unnecessarily compromise “quality of life”. Light Pollution/ Light Trespass Light pollution is light shining directly into the sky. Light trespass is unwanted light shining out of the intended area, usually off the property. 20 Light Pollution and Light Trespass These conditions can occur simultaneously… from the same fixture! Pole Height Using more luminaires with lower pole height and lower brightness lamps can significantly reduce glare and light trespass while improving uniformity.

These components are housed within a light fixture (a.k.a. luminaire). The Potential Benefits of Light Emitting Plasma luminaire also includes an optical assembly to distribute the light produced by the lamp. Light Emitting Plasma offers the following advantages over conventional high intensity discharge lamps: • Better reliability: conventional metal halide lamps require electrodes within the arc tube. These electrodes are usually made of tungsten and require a mechanical seal - which can lead to premature lamp failure. As the tungsten degrades, it darkens the walls of the lamp and reduces the light output. • Rapid start: 45 seconds to reach 80% of full brightness LEP System Components Source: LUXIM • Faster re-strike: when the power is turned off to high • Lamp: consists of a very small intensity discharge lamps Source: LUXIM quartz tube (3/4” long), which (e.g.

Qiu1 11Harbin Institute of Technology, 92, West Dazhi Street, Nan Gang District, Harbin, China 2 Kharkiv National University of Radio Electronics, 14, Nauky Ave., 61166, Kharkiv, Ukraine [email protected] Keywords: microwave heating, magnetron, electrodeless sulfur lamp, plasma, microwave excitation 1. Introduction For more than 50 years, interest to the microwave heating technology has not weakened. In addition to the traditional areas of its application, which described in detail in [1], recently there has been an expansion of technological possibilities for the use of microwave energy associated with the impact of electromagnetic waves of the microwave range on various materials (sintering of metal and ceramic powders) and media, including plasma [2]. One such new direction is the creation of high-power and environmentally friendly sources of optical radiation on the basis of the electrodeless sulfur lamp with microwave excitation [2, 3]. As it is known, Michael Ury and his associates at Fusion Systems invented this radically new lamp in 1990, but the lamp was not ideal because of the complexity of its design [4]. Therefore, it was not put into production. However, every year the scientific interest was growing. An analysis of scientific publications shows that every 5 years a new country is joined to this issue. Now more than in 10 countries of all would including USA, Great Britain, South Korea, Netherlands, Germany, Russia, and so on where there are research teams that are carried out an investigation concerning the electrodeless lamps with microwave excitation.

  • New Induction and Plasma Lighting Technologies Proven Superior to LED for Streetlighting and High Lumen Applications
    New Induction and Plasma Lighting Technologies proven Superior to LED for Streetlighting and High Lumen Applications Both Induction lamp and LEP (Light Emitting Plasma) technologies offer significant advantages over LED fixtures for streetlighting and high lumen applications with superior cost savings, longevity and performance Cities and muncipalities across the U.S. are seeking to replace inefficient lighting for streetlighting and public buildings to save energy and reduce operating costs. Similarly, commercial businesses, factories, large retail stores, warehouses, airports, convention centers, and parking facilities are looking to upgrade or replace their lighting systems for energy and maintenance savings. Typically 40% or more of the energy usage for municipalities, businesses and institutions is consumed by lighting. While the popularity of LED lighting increases for many applications, LED is not the best solution when high light levels are needed. Decline of the Realm of HID Lighting For decades, applications requiring high light levels have been the realm of high intensity discharge (HID) lighting fixtures. Street and highway lighting, parking lots, bridges & tunnels, stadiums, transportation facilities and other large outdoor areas are typically illuminated with HID fixtures. Warehouses, factories, parking garages, shopping malls, and high ceiling indoor applications also typically use HID lighting. Generally, high pressure sodium (HPS) lamps are utilized for streetlighting and industrial applications due to their efficiency and 24,000 hour life. But HPS exhibits poor color with a yellowish cast. Metal halide lamps, with whiter color rendering are used for most HID applications, but possess shorter lamp life, usually around 10,000 hours. All HID lamps employ an electrode to ignite gasses contained within the bulb envelope, and require a ballast for start-up and voltage regulation.
