Modelling Miniature Incandescent Light Bulbs for Thermal Infrared ‘THz Torch’ Applications
The ‘THz Torch’ concept is an emerging technology that was recently introduced by the authors for implementing secure wireless communications over short distances within the thermal infrared (20-100 THz, 15 μm to 3 μm). In order to predict the band-limited output radiated power from ‘THz Torch’ transmitters, for the first time, this paper reports on a detailed investigation into the radiation m...
متن کاملPotential environmental impacts from the metals in incandescent, compact fluorescent lamp (CFL), and light-emitting diode (LED) bulbs.
Artificial lighting systems are transitioning from incandescent to compact fluorescent lamp (CFL) and light-emitting diode (LED) bulbs in response to the U.S. Energy Independence and Security Act and the EU Ecodesign Directive, which leads to energy savings and reduced greenhouse gas emissions. Although CFLs and LEDs are more energy-efficient than incandescent bulbs, they require more metal-con...
متن کاملEPA Sees the Light on Fluorescent Bulbs
According to a survey of trends in alternative medicine use that was published in the 1 1 November 1998 issue of the Journal ofthe American Medical Association, U.S. consumers were spending as much as $5.1 billion annually on herbal products as of 1997. In addition, about 18% of all prescription drug users reported using herbal remedies or high-dose vitamins along with their prescribed medicati...
متن کاملInfluence of Electric Bulb Light Color and Type on the Attraction of Two Spotted Cricket (Gryllus bimaculatus De Geer)
Aside being a key nocturnal Agricultural pest, the two spotted cricket is an important source of protein for humans and livestock. While control is largely by synthetic pesticides, collection is majorly through hand picking and pouring of water into their burrows. In this study, we determined their phototactic response to LED and incandescent bulb light of different colours. An experiment was s...
متن کاملEffects of Compact Fluorescence Light (Cfl) Bulbs on Power Quality
In recent time, the power quality has attracted a lot of attention due to extensive emphasis by power utility on the power system efficiency and end users awareness of power quality issues. This has occurred mainly due to the sensitivity of the modern equipment and the deregulation of the power distribution. In addition, there are usually massive losses both to power utility and end users due t...
