This document discusses different light sources including natural sunlight and various artificial light sources such as incandescent, fluorescent, discharge, and halogen lamps. It provides details on the operation and characteristics of these various lamp types. Incandescent lamps emit light due to the filament heating to a high temperature, while discharge lamps emit light from an electric current passing through gas. Fluorescent lamps contain mercury vapor and produce light through fluorescence of phosphor coatings.
Light is fundamental for space and essential for human well-being and it is the success of any building.
Light quality affects human behaviour, health, comfort and mood.
"Space and light and order. Those are the things that men need just as much as they need bread or a place to sleep“ -Le Corbusier, August27,1965
Light, space and human they effect and work with each other.
Space needs light to illuminate; light needs space to receive it, light within the space change human experience
the act of illuminating or the state of being illuminated. a source of light, oftenly a light or lights, esp coloured lights, used as decoration in streets, parks, etc.
Interior Lighting: Bringing Rooms To Life teaches the basics of residential interior lighting. The liveaction video demonstrates how the angle, quality, and intensity of light influence how it is perceived and used.
The program explains ambient lighting, task lighting, and accent lighting. It demonstrates different kinds of lamps and lighting fixtures and shows how each contributes to the overall interior design plan.
The video is aimed at students taking introductory courses in interior design or lighting.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

Light sources
1. LIGHT SOURCES
1. Natural Sources of Light
2. Artificial Sources of Light
Light from natural sources such as the sun is known as
white light.
Artificial light from sources such as candles, tungsten
filaments and gas discharge lamps, etc., has a different
mix of frequency components which produce a different
colour light.
2. Discharge lamps have concentrated outputs at or near
the centre of the visible spectrum to improve their
efficiency, or to use a more exact lighting term, their
efficacy.
3. The output of an incandescent lamp is higher at the red
end of the spectrum giving it a characteristically warm
output. (2800 K approx.).
Note that most of its output is outside the visible
spectrum and because of this it is a very inefficient lamp
with a typical efficacy of 12 lumens per watt.
4. The output of a tri-phosphor fluorescent lamp is
concentrated at the three primary colours of the
spectrum. This provides an efficient lamp (up to 90
lumens per watt) with good colour properties. Exact
colour rendering is not provided by these lamps.
5. If exact colour tasks are to be performed then colour
matching lamps are necessary. These lamps have
much lower efficacies and provide a characteristically
cool colour similar to the natural light of an overcast
day in the northern hemisphere.
6. 1. INCANDESCENT LAMP
2. DISCHARGE LAMP
The incandescent lamp emits light by reason of its
temperature and the Discharge lamp emits light due to an
electric current flowing in a gas.
LAMP TYPES
7. Incandescent Lamps
Light is emitted from a tungsten filament operating at a
very high temperature inside a glass bulb. The operating
temperature is limited by the melting point of the filament,
vaporization of the filament occurs as this point is
approached and this reduces the life of the lamp. The bulb
usually contains an inert gas, normally argon. The
temperature of the filament is around 2800K but even at
this temperature only about 10% of the energy used is
emitted as light in the visible region of the spectrum -
hence its inefficiency.
8. Types of Incandescent Filament Lamp:
GLS (General Lighting System), Candle, Decorative,
Reflector, Pygmy, Strip, Extra Low Voltage (12V) *
*These lamps are commonly referred to as Low Voltage
incandescent lamps and have the following advantages:
1) more compact;
2) longer life;
3) increased efficacy,
4) more precise beam control
5) Higher colour temperature than GLS.
Balanced against following are the problems of:
1. high energy cost;
2. heat dissipation
3. transformers often prove problematic;
4. significant colour shift when dimmed.
9. 1. Outline of Glass bulb
2. Low pressure inert gas (argon,
neon, nitrogen)
3. Tungsten filament
4. Contact wire (goes out of stem)
5. Contact wire (goes into stem)
6. Support wires
7. Stem (glass mount)
8. Contact wire (goes out of stem)
9. Cap (sleeve)
10. Insulation (vitrite)
11. Electrical contact
11. Tungsten Halogen Incandescent Lamps
These lamps have a tungsten filament and operate on the
incandescent principle.
They have a higher operating temp (3000K ) which:
(i) Increases the efficacy.
(ii) Improves the quality of light.
(iii) Tends to shorten lamp life.
Applications for Tungsten Halogen Lamps: Security
lighting, vehicle lights,
short duration use e.g. T.H. are sometimes used alongside
discharge lamps that require a long warm up time. The T.H.
lamps only operate whilst the discharge lamps warm up. These
lamps are particularly sensitive to a change in supply voltage
which affects their operating temperature.
12.
13. LOW PRESSURE DISCHARGE LAMPS
Tubular fluorescent lamps
Tubular and compact fluorescent lamps contain low
pressure mercury vapour. The inside of the tubes are
coated with a combination of phosphor powders. U.V.
radiation is produced when an electric current passes
through the gas. The U.V. radiation strikes the phosphor
powders and is re-emitted as light in the visible spectrum.
The spectral light distribution may be varied by changing
the combination of phosphors. Control gear (ballast) is
necessary to initiate the gas discharge and limit circuit
current.
14.
15. Compact Fluorescent Lamps (CFL’S)
CFL’s are being used widely for the replacement of
GLS lamps. Their life cycle cost is much less than GLS
lamps when operated for long periods because of the
massive savings in energy costs.
16.
17. Induction Lamps
An induction coil is located in a glass bulb having a
phosphor powder coating on the inside and containing low
pressure gas. A radio frequency (2.65MHz) current in the
coil causes a U.V. emission in the gas. The phosphor
powder converts the U.V. radiation into light in the visible
spectrum.
18.
19. Low Pressure Sodium (SOX) Lamps
A low pressure discharge lamp produces
monochromatic light at the centre of the visible
spectrum where the eye is most sensitive. The
characteristically “orange/ yellow” output is easily
identifiable. The LPSV or SOX lamp is suitable where
colour performance is unimportant.
20. Cold Cathode (Neon) Lamps:
These lamps are mainly used for signs. Neon gas is
frequently used and produces a characteristic red colour.
The colour of the discharge may be changed by varying the
gas type. . The lamps do not have a fluorescent powder
coating. The tube may be shaped as desired and lamp life is
up to 30,000 hours with an efficacy of up to 50 lm/W.
There is no starter or choke and a high voltage transformer
(10kV) is necessary to initiate the gas discharge.
21.
22. HIGH PRESSURE DISCHARGE LAMPS
High Pressure Sodium (SON) Lamps
This lamp has a much better colour rendering performance
than the low pressure version. Emphasis is on the red and
yellow regions providing a warm “golden yellow” output.
Applications: High bay industrial lighting, Gymnasia,
Street Lighting.
A range of ‘plug in’ son lamps are available as direct
replacements for HPMV lamps.
23.
24. • High Pressure Mercury (MB) Lamps
These lamps have been in use since the 1930’s. The
older characteristically blue appearances of the MB
lamp has given way to a whiter appearance with the
introduction of the MBF (deluxe) lamp which has a
phosphor coating.
25. Metal Halide (MBI) Lamps
These lamps have largely replaced MBF lamps because
of their improved colour rendering and higher efficacy.
The addition of halides improves the colour rendering
to such an extent that they are widely used for sports
stadia where good colour performance is important.
