等が発生するといった欠点がある。High-frequency lighting of such conventional high-pressure discharge lamps has the advantages of improving the luminous efficiency of the discharge lamp, making the ballast smaller and lighter due to the electronic lighting circuit, and reducing loss. The speed of sound inside the arc tube is determined by the material, etc.
Acoustic resonance occurs at the resonant frequency determined by the shape of the arc tube, causing arc column curvature, fluctuation, extinction, and damage to the arc tube.

ンプでもランプ間によるばらつきがあるため、特定の周
波数を設定することは難しい。In order to ensure stable lighting, high-pressure discharge lamps should be lit in a frequency range in which they can be lit stably, but this stable frequency range varies depending on the type of lamp, and even among lamps of the same type there are variations between lamps. Therefore, it is difficult to set a specific frequency.

There is a method of avoiding the acoustic resonance phenomenon by using square wave lighting, etc., but such lighting methods have problems such as complicating the circuit configuration and generating radiated radio noise.

共鳴現象が生じる。(Disclosure of the Invention) First, the acoustic resonance phenomenon will be explained. When a high-pressure discharge lamp is lit with alternating current, electrons and ions within the arc tube are accelerated by the electric field and move within the arc tube. In the movement process,
-Charged particles collide with neutral atoms in the arc tube. The motion of the charged particles and the neutral atoms that have gained kinetic energy through collision becomes an excitation force, which resonates with the sound velocity inside the arc tube determined by the inclusions in the arc tube, and the natural frequency determined by the shape of the arc tube. Acoustic resonance occurs due to the presence of waves.

This method avoids acoustic resonance by creating a difference between the pressure fluctuations in the pipe and the natural frequency, and preventing standing waves from forming.
