qp_uvb313_temp.mspct: Spectral irradiance data for UVB lamps at different temperatures.

Description

Dataset of spectral irradiance from a set of two Q-Panel UVB-313 40W fluorescent tubes, measured at seven different temperatures.

Absolute values are comparable among the different temperatures. The lamps and the cosine diffuser were located inside a Conviron growth chamber. The measurements were done with a recently calibrated Macam double-monochromator spectroradiometer located outside the chamber and maintained at constant room temperature of 22 C. After each change in the temperature controller set-point enough time was allowed after the temperature had stabilized inside the chamber, for the output of the lamps to also become stable.

Usage

qp_uvb313_temp.mspct

Arguments

Format

A "source_mspct" object containing a collection of "source_spct" objects, each with 111 rows (290 nm to 400 nm, 1.0 nm step) and 2 variables.

Details

The "source_mspct" object contains "source_spct" objects minus5C, plus00C, plus05C, plus10C, plus20C, plus30C, and plus35C.

The variables in each member spectrum are as follows:

  • w.length (nm)

  • s.e.irrad (relative energy based units)

The variables are as follows:
