A candela plot is a plot of luminous intensity, or flux per solid angle. In photometric ` #0:gEo
units, a luminous intensity plot is in units of candelas (lumens per steradian). In *9
{PEx
radiometric units, an intensity plot is in units of watts per steradian. Candela plots 7lTC{7C57
are commonly used in the design of illumination systems, especially those used in 5; C|

Candela data can be collected from ray sets of Missed rays, rays Exiting a surface t6rRU~;}
or rays Incident on a surface. Missed rays are a collection of all rays that “leave” Fk7?xc
the model and “go off to infinity.” Exiting rays are the collection of ray segments 39c2pV[
following the intersection point of a ray at a surface. Due to ray splitting, several '(6z.

ray segments may contribute to the candela data for each incident ray. Incident XE RUo
rays are the collection of ray segments which intersect the selected surface. No /|w6:;$;mn
surface selection is required for Missed rays but one is necessary for Exiting and OHN _

The candela plots represent flux versus angle and can be smoothed using the H.P_]3f
Candela Options dialog box. The iso-candela plots can be presented as false a9e>iU
color maps or contour plots. The distribution plots are graphs of cross-sectional t

curves through the candela distribution. 2F[ q).
The orientation of the candela plots is determined by the Normal Vector and the E#RDqL*J
Up Vector, as specified in the Analysis|Candela Options dialog box. The sQ3[<
normal vector specifies the axis of the candela plot and the up vector specifies %jJG>T
“which way is up.”
