Zusammenfassung: | The present invention relates to a high-intensity discharge lamp (1) comprising a discharge vessel (2) enclosing a filling in a discharge chamber (3), and a pair of electrode rods (4, 5) being formed of a material which is free of thorium and protruding from opposite sides into the discharge chamber (3). The diameter ED of the electrode rods (4, 5) in the discharge chamber (3) satisfies the formula (I), wherein W represents the value of the nominal lamp power in mW and Ed represents the value of the distance of the electrode rods (4, 5) in the discharge chamber (3) in mm, and wherein the nominal lamp power W is between 20 W and 50 W. With the above formula, high-intensity discharge lamps can be easily designed with different nominal powers and/or 10 electrode distances without time consuming experiments in order to achieve an optimum performance. |
