Energy Consumption

Industrial production Transportation Heating and cooling Lighting …


High Intensity Discharge (HID) Lamp

Arc tube / burner– Wall: Quartz or ceramics– Filling: Mercury– Additives: Metal halides etc

Electrodes– Tungsten

Discharge arc– Temperature: ca. 5000 – 6000 K– Light source


AC Operation

Advantages:– Avoids demixing– Avoids electrode errosion

Disadvantages:– Flickering– Reduction of lamp‘s lifetime– Lamp destruction

Counteraction:– Electronical measures– Lamp design


Objective and Scope of Paper
