We use Optical Character Recognition (OCR) during our scanning and processing workflow to make the content of each page searchable. You can view the automatically generated text below as well as copy and paste individual pieces of text to quote in your own work.

Text recognition is never 100% accurate. Many parts of the scanned page may not be reflected in the OCR text output, including: images, page layout, certain fonts or handwriting.

150 Transactions of S.M.P.E., August 1927 T=m (16) The ordinate of this curve at any particular wave-length, X, will be represented by T\. Now the relative intensity of radiation of any particular wavelength which reaches the photographic material is proportional to the product of the ordinates of the curves B, C, and D. Multiplying through at each wave-length and plotting the result as a function of 0.4 300 400 500 600 700 WAVELENGTH (m/Li) Fig. 8. Curves illustrating the determination of filter factor by integration method. wave-length, curve A in Fig. 8 is obtained. The total photographic effect produced on the sensitive material is directly proportional to the shaded area enclosed between the curve and the X-axis. The magnitude of this area, P, can be expressed analytically by the integral A\T\J\d's (17) The area P as given by equation (17) can be determined by mechanical integration using a suitable planimeter. As a matter of fact it is necessary to do this since in general it is impossible to evaluate analytically equations (14), (15), and (16). By using the planimeter the area under curve A shown in Fig. 8 was found to be 0.76Xa.
