    The candela (/ k æ n ˈ d ɛ l ə / or / k æ n ˈ d iː l ə /; symbol: cd) is the unit of luminous intensity in the International System of Units (SI). [5] [6] It measures luminous power per unit solid angle emitted by a light source in a particular direction.

  2. May 16, 2019 · Small wonder, then, that even in our technological society, the measurement unit for lightthe candelais the most human-oriented of the International System of Units (SI). The candela is the SI’s base unit for photometry—the science of measuring light as perceived by the human visual system.

  3. Candela (cd), unit of luminous intensity in the International System of Units (SI), defined as the luminous intensity in a given direction of a source that emits monochromatic radiation of frequency 540 × 1012 hertz and has a radiant intensity in that same direction of 1683 watt per steradian (unit

  4. Its C-8 boat model has already become the best-selling electric speed boat in Europe (and it actually outsells most internal combustion engine-powered boats in its premium category). Candelas hydrofoiling electric boats attract $24M investment in a bid for cleaner seas.

    The candela, symbol cd, is the SI unit of luminous intensity in a given direction. It is defined by taking the fixed numerical value of the luminous efficacy of monochromatic radiation of frequency 540 x 10 12 Hz, K cd , to be 683 when expressed in the unit lm W –1 , which is equal to cd sr W –1 , or cd sr kg –1 m –2 s 3 , where the ...

  6. Candlepower and candela are both measurements of light at source, but neither tells us how powerful the light is some distance away from the source. Instead, we measure the amount of light illuminating a surface area, which is called, naturally enough, the illuminance. The result is measured in lumens, with 1 lumen = 1

  7. The candela, symbol cd, is the SI base unit of luminous intensity in a given direction. By definition, one candela is equal to one lumen per steradian, where the lumen is defined by taking the fixed numerical value of the luminous efficacy of monochromatic radiation of frequency 540 × 10 12 Hz, K cd, to be 683 when expressed in the unit lm W ‑1.

  8. The meaning of CANDELA is the base unit of luminous intensity in the International System of Units that is equal to the luminous intensity in a given direction of a source which emits monochromatic radiation of frequency 540 × 1012 hertz and has a radiant intensity in that direction of 1/6₈₃ watt per unit solid angle —abbreviation cd ...

  9. The candela is the luminous intensity in a given direction of a source that emits monochromatic radiation of frequency 540 x 10 12 hertz and that has a radiant intensity in that direction of 1/683 watt per steradian.

    Historical perspective: Unit of luminous intensity, candela. The units of luminous intensity, which were based on flame or incandescent filament standards in use in various countries before 1948, were replaced initially by the "new candle" based on the luminance of a Planckian radiator (a black body) at the temperature of freezing platinum.
