Abstract
The author discusses a new application for a computer program called Lights, i.e., modeling the thermal characterization of fluorescent fixtures. This program is a powerful tool for the fixture designer because it handles the interaction between thermal heat transfer and lumen output of the fixture. The designer is able to evaluate changes in ballast location, lamp types, geometry of fixture, and material of construction. The program can run on a PC and the number of nodes can be selected depending on accuracy. The author shows the ease of using this computer program and outlines the effect of the number of lamps on the temperatures within the fixture as an example.<>
