Number of Floodlighting Units Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Number of Floodlighting Units = (Area to be Lighted*Illumination Intensity)/(0.7*Lumen Flux)
N = (A_light*E_v)/(0.7*Φ_B)
This formula uses 4 Variables

Variables Used

Number of Floodlighting Units - Number of Floodlighting Units where the light sources are concentrated into narrow light beams using specific reflectors is known as flood lighting.
Area to be Lighted - (Measured in Square Meter) - Area to be Lighted defined by their light distribution, with some consideration of potential application as well.
Illumination Intensity - (Measured in Lux) - Illumination intensity refers to the level or strength of light in a given area. It quantifies the amount of light reaching a surface and is typically measured in units such as lux or foot-candles.
Lumen Flux - (Measured in Lumen) - Lumen flux is often used as an objective measure of the useful light emitted by a light source.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Area to be Lighted: 8.98 Square Meter --> 8.98 Square Meter No Conversion Required
Illumination Intensity: 1.02 Lux --> 1.02 Lux No Conversion Required
Lumen Flux: 7.651 Lumen --> 7.651 Lumen No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

N = (A_light*E_v)/(0.7*Φ_B) --> (8.98*1.02)/(0.7*7.651)

Evaluating ... ...

N = 1.71025262804115

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

1.71025262804115 --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

1.71025262804115 ≈ 1.710253 <-- Number of Floodlighting Units

How many flood lights do I need?

That depends on the space you wish to illuminate. Small areas such as outdoor footpaths and doorways would need around 1,500–4,000 lm. Small yards, store forecourts, and driveways would need around 6,000–11,000 lm. Larger areas require 13,000–40,500 lm for roads and parking lots.
