colour.temperature.uv_to_CCT_Ohno2013

colour.temperature.uv_to_CCT_Ohno2013(uv, cmfs=XYZ_ColourMatchingFunctions(name='CIE 1931 2 Degree Standard Observer', ...), start=1000, end=100000, count=10, iterations=6)[source]

Returns the correlated colour temperature \(T_{cp}\) and \(\Delta_{uv}\) from given CIE UCS colourspace uv chromaticity coordinates, colour matching functions and temperature range using Ohno (2013) method.

The iterations parameter defines the calculations precision: The higher its value, the more planckian tables will be generated through cascade expansion in order to converge to the exact solution.

Parameters:
  • uv (array_like) – CIE UCS colourspace uv chromaticity coordinates.
  • cmfs (XYZ_ColourMatchingFunctions, optional) – Standard observer colour matching functions.
  • start (numeric, optional) – Temperature range start in kelvins.
  • end (numeric, optional) – Temperature range end in kelvins.
  • count (int, optional) – Temperatures count in the planckian tables.
  • iterations (int, optional) – Number of planckian tables to generate.
Returns:

Correlated colour temperature \(T_{cp}\), \(\Delta_{uv}\).
Return type:

ndarray
