Examples
Temperature (kelvin): 6600
Limitations
- Tanner Helland empirical approximation, 1,000–40,000 K. Artistic preview only; no spectral calculation, calibrated lighting or physical temperature measurement.
- Maximum 100,000 UTF-16 units per field, 400,000 UTF-8 combined input bytes, 4 MiB output and 30 seconds in a local worker. Tool-specific bounds may be tighter.
- Generated source is contained in the JSON download and is never executed. Local inspection does not verify remote systems or establish standards certification.
