lumen/steradian to candle (pentane)
Please provide values below to convert lumen/steradian [lm/sr] to candle (pentane), or change ↔.
lumen/steradian [lm/sr]
Definition: A unit of luminous intensity per unit solid angle, representing the amount of luminous flux emitted in a particular direction.
Historyandorigin: Lumen per steradian is derived from the lumen (a unit of luminous flux) and steradian (a unit of solid angle).
CurrentUse: Commonly used in photometry, especially when describing directional light sources like projectors or flashlights.
funfact: This unit is key in measuring how light spreads in a specific direction, and is used for understanding light distribution in optical devices.
candle (pentane)
Definition: A unit of luminous intensity based on the light emitted by a pentane lamp burning under specific conditions.
Historyandorigin: The pentane candle was defined by the light emitted by a pentane lamp, and it was used as a standard for a time in certain regions.
CurrentUse: It is no longer in use, having been replaced by the candela in the SI system, which provides a more standardized and accurate measure of light intensity.
funfact: The pentane candle was an important historical step in the development of modern photometry, but it was eventually superseded by more reliable methods.

How to Convert lumen/steradian to candle (pentane)
1 lumen/steradian [lm/sr] = 1 candle (pentane)
1 candle (pentane) = 1 lumen/steradian [lm/sr]
we use cross multiplication method
lumen/steradian [lm/sr] → candle (pentane)
1 → 1
1.5 → ?( suppose x)
=>1.5*1=1*x
by simplifying
x=1.5
