 Etendue of a circular aperture and cone

Consider a planar circular aperture of diameter $D$ in constant refractive index $n$. Suppose every position in its area $A=\pi D^2/4$ is filled with directions inside the same rotationally symmetric cone about the unit normal, with half-angle ${\theta }_{\max }$. Using spherical coordinates, the exact etendue iswhere $\mathrm{NA}=n\sin {\theta }_{\max }$ is the appropriate side's numerical aperture. The ordinary cone solid angle is $2\pi (1-\cos {\theta }_{\max })$; its cosine-weighted value is $\pi {\sin }^2{\theta }_{\max }$. A full forward hemisphere therefore gives $G=n^{2}A\pi$, rather than $2\pi n^{2}A$. ^[ref]

For an original model example, choose $n=1$, $D=10\mathrm{mm}$, and ${\theta }_{\max }=30^{\circ }$. ThenIf the radiance is uniform across this filled bundle and equals $L=100\mathrm{W}{\mathrm{m}}^{-2}\mathrm{s}{\mathrm{r}}^{-1}$, its radiant flux is $\Phi =LG/n^2\approx 6.1685\mathrm{mW}$. Neither the geometry nor the chosen radiance is an experimental measurement.
