During the present Sars-CoV-2 pandemic, there has been an increase in the development of UVC disinfection systems. Researchers and members of the lighting community shifted their interests to this new field to help develop systems for disinfecting facemasks and other small equipment. In this paper we show that it is possible to use DIALux to simulate the irradiance distribution provided by a lamp emitting in the UVC range. We will compare the results provided by DIALux with those obtained from Zemax OpticStudio in three different scenarios. We compared the minimum, maximum, and mean irradiance at the detection plane. The differences between the two software were less than 12%, 2%, and 6%, respectively. We also compared the contour maps of isoirradiance lines. We conclude that DIALux is well suited for UVC lighting design in the UVC range. We think that this finding will contribute to increasing the design and manufacturing of new UVC disinfection systems needed to fight against the Sars-CoV-2 pandemic.
在当前的 SARS-CoV-2 大流行期间，紫外线 C（UVC）消毒系统的开发有所增加。研究人员和照明界的成员将兴趣转向这一新领域，以帮助开发用于消毒口罩和其他小型设备的系统。在本文中，我们展示了使用 DIALux 模拟发出 UVC 范围的灯提供的辐照度分布是可能的。我们将在三种不同情况下比较 DIALux 提供的结果与 Zemax OpticStudio 获得的结果。我们比较了探测平面上的最小、最大和平均辐照度。两种软件之间的差异分别小于 12%、2%和 6%。我们还比较了等照度线的等高线图。我们得出结论，DIALux 非常适合 UVC 范围内的 UVC 照明设计。我们认为这一发现将有助于增加对抗 SARS-CoV-2 大流行所需的新型 UVC 消毒系统的设计和制造。
