The Results of the Testing of Led Light According to the Method of Measuring the Lighting Engineering Parameters

Abstract

The paper presents results of the thermographic and numerical analyses of the chosen design of the LED lamp radiator. The LED technology is characterized by the most dynamic development in the ligh ting market. The object of the test is the LED-1 product, which represents the unit module of the multi-module lighting system. Due to high heat fl ux on the small surface of the individual diodes, problems related to the light source cooling become to be one of the basic ones. The parameters of the test modes for the eff ects of changes in temperature are selected taking into account the physical and mechanical properties of the materials used in the manufacture of the product. Tests were conducted in a windless, dark room. Heat was discharged through convection and radiation. The tests in a dark room were conducted. Heat was discharged through convection and radiation. A thermoelectric transducer chromel-copel with dimensions of 400 μm was used to measure the temperature. The temperature was measured by passing a nominal current of 1,67 A through the module. The test results were analyzed and processed. Based on the result it was decided that the works will be continued using the advanced test stand, equipped with the system of the forced air circulation, control and data acquisition system connected with set of the temperature measurers and improved barriers, preventing the interference of the light fl ux with the thermographic measurement. The results of studies of thermal conditions and lighting parameters of the sample of the LED lamp in the process of robots are given. The ability of LED modules to resist the destructive action of heat has been determined. Inspection of potentially unreliable structural elements, strength of fasteners has been done. The luminous effi ciency of LED modules is calculated by indirect and direct, thermal and optical measurements. For the clarity of the working picture was a measured base spectral characteristic. The case temperature, with basic measurements, was 45 °C, and the ambient temperature was 24,2 °C. Analyzing the measurement results — the deviation of the light characteristics amounted to < 10 %. Bringing measurement results to model drawings in CAD SolidWorks allowed us to create a consistent computer model of the product. The model allows with sufficient accuracy to carry out all the calculations for thermal and mass-dimensional data.
