 Colour Temperature Chart
A guide showing several typical color temperatures in Degrees Kelvin.
Interactive Color Temperature in a Virtual Radiator
The tutorial initializes with a black cooking pot appearing in the window in a cool state. By translating the Color Temperature slider beneath the pot, visitors can adjust the temperature of the pot, and then monitor the color changes and their relationship to absolute temperature on the Kelvin scale (changing values are indicated on the right-hand side of the pot).
Lighting Design Knowledgebase
Color temperature is a simplified way to characterize the spectral properties of a light source. While in reality the color of light is determined by how much each point on the spectral curve contributes to its output, the result can still be summarized on a linear scale.
Sizes.com: Color Temperature
A measure of the distribution of power in the spectrum of white, or colorless, light, stated in terms of the kelvin temperature scale. The human visual system is incredibly adept at quickly correcting for changes in the color temperature of light; many different kinds of light all seem "white" to us.
