This expresses the total
quantity of light radiated
per 1 second by
a light source.
The unit of luminous flux
is the lumen (lm)
Luminous intensity
This is defined as the flux of
light emitted in a certain
direction.
The unit of luminous intensity
is the candela (cd)
Illuminance
This is the quantity of light
falling on a unit area of a
