In export.py code, there is the code at l691

python
            if hasattr(light, "energy") and hasattr(light, "shadow_soft_size"):
                X = light.energy
                r = light.shadow_soft_size
                # candelas * 1000 / (4 * math.pi * r**2). additionally units come out of blender at 1/100 scale
                new_wattage = (
                    (X * 20 / (4 * math.pi)) * 1000 / (4 * math.pi * r**2) * 100
                )
                light.energy = new_wattage

What is X*20? If it's based on some theory or implementation in Blender or Omniverse, could you please explain it?

What version of the code were you using?
