Abstract:Metal halide (MH) lamps comes under the category of high intensity discharge (HID) lamps, which involves high intensity thermal plasma discharge phenomenon. In this paper we have considered ceramic MH lamps. The plasma discharge in MH lamps is different from other plasma discharge by the velocity of all the discharge obeys Maxwellian distribution, the excited energy states are occupied by Boltzmann distribution, and composition of the plasma can be derived from local chemical equilibrium. This paper explores t… Show more
