The Halogen Cycle in an Incandescent Lamp. Step 1: Tungsten atoms evaporate from the hot filament and move toward the cooler wall of the bulb. Step 2: Tungsten, oxygen and halogen atoms combine at the bulb-wall to form tungsten oxyhalide molecules. Step 3: The bulb-wall temperature keeps the tungsten oxyhalide molecules in a vapor.
The filament of a Tungsten Halogen Lamp has two purposes. One is to generate light, and the second is to generate the heat necessary to obtain a wall temperature exceeding 250C. These lamps have been designed to maintain this required wall temperature when operated at design voltage. A reduction of voltage exceeding 10% from the design voltage ...
The first tungsten-halogen lamps were filled with iodine because of its low chemical reactivity (Zubler and Mosby 1959) and this halogen was eventually replaced by bromine, which has more favorable characteristics (T'Jampens and van de Weijer 1966). Because bromine is aggressive toward tungsten below 1970 K, hydrogen is added so as …
This interactive tutorial demonstrates how halogens combine with tungsten and oxygen to complete the halogen regenerative cycle in incandescent tungsten halogen lamps. The …
