Performance Evaluation of LEDs for the Substitution of Fluorescent Lighting Sources

형광등 대체용 LED 조명기구의 성능 평가

Recently, the development of LEDs is important and prevalent in the lighting market. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the performance of white LEDs by comparing with fluorescent lightings. First, this study performed to survey technical developments and design trend of white LEDs. Second, comparing white LEDs with fluorescent lightings which are widely used, this paper evaluated physical characteristics of white LEDs. Lastly, this study Performed subjective evaluation which is comparing side-by-side rooms installed LEDs and fluorescent luminaires to investigate psychological and physical evaluation. The results of this study could be used as fundamental data for the development of white LEDs.
