colour.temperature.uv_to_CCT_Krystek1985

colour.temperature.uv_to_CCT_Krystek1985(uv, optimisation_parameters=None)[source]

Returns the correlated colour temperature \(T_{cp}\) from given CIE UCS colourspace uv chromaticity coordinates using Krystek (1985) method.

Parameters
  • uv (array_like) – CIE UCS colourspace uv chromaticity coordinates.

  • optimisation_parameters (dict_like, optional) – Parameters for scipy.optimize.minimize() definition.

Returns

Correlated colour temperature \(T_{cp}\).

Return type

ndarray

Warning

Krystek (1985) does not give an analytical inverse transformation to compute the correlated colour temperature \(T_{cp}\) from given CIE UCS colourspace uv chromaticity coordinates, the current implementation relies on optimization using scipy.optimize.minimize() definition and thus has reduced precision and poor performance.

Notes

  • Krystek (1985) method computations are valid for correlated colour temperature \(T_{cp}\) normalised to domain [1000, 15000].
