How to calculate the UV dose from mW/cm2, time, disance and the...
I would like to compare the UV dose of a UV lamp 365 nm, 6 mW/cm2 at a distance of 0.5 cm with the UV dose of a UV lamp 365 nm, 250 mW/cm2 at a distance of 19 cm. Actually the point is: does the bigger distance (19 cm vs 0.5 cm) compensate the higher energies (250 mW/cm2 vs 6 mW/cm2)? (of course this is intended for the same exposure time).Best Regards, Marcello
