LF11 The effect of mechanical cooling on lamp colour and efficiency (2013) (pdf)

This Factfile gives the reader an insight into the colour shift and efficiency problems that can be encountered when choosing an inte-grated lighting and cooling solution for an office development. Lamps and LED arrays are designed to give their optimum output and stated colour temperature at a given at-mospheric temperature. If lamps are cooled below this temperature, their colour will shift and their and their output will change. This can result in the lighting installation deliver-ing below its design intentions.
