During steady-state operation, hot-coiled filaments in incandescent lamps provide luminous flux for illumination, but when switched off, the temperature, as well as the light output drops quite fast. The cooling-time of a lamp is the time required for the hot filament to cool down to ten per cent light output after the circuit is opened. In this paper, the exercise of estimating luminous flux and...
Electricity provides power to incandescent lamps to heat the filament hot enough so that it provides light for illumination. The time taken to achieve a state of full brilliance after being turned on is so fast that it may be presumed to be adiabatic, hence it is deemed adiabatic heating time. In view of the fact that in actual practice simultaneously black-body radiation cools the filament, the General...
