单词 pyrheliometer
释义

pyrheliometern.

Brit. /pəːˌhiːlɪˈɒmᵻtə/, U.S. /paɪ(ə)rˌhiliˈɑmədər/, /pərˌhiliˈɑmədər/
Forms: 1800s– pyrheliometer, 1900s– pyroheliometer.
Origin: Formed within English, by compounding; modelled on a French lexical item. Etymons: pyro- comb. form, helio- comb. form, -meter comb. form2.
Etymology: < pyro- comb. form + helio- comb. form + -meter comb. form2, after French pyrhéliomètre (C.S.M. Pouillet 1838, in Comptes rendus hebd. de l'Acad. des Sci. 7 25).
Meteorology.
An instrument for measuring solar radiation incident on the earth (the solar constant).In the original form of the instrument the sun's rays were caused to fall perpendicularly for a certain time on a blackened strip of metal, or on water or mercury in a blackened, closed, shallow vessel, and its consequent rise in temperature observed. Modern ones usually measure the solar radiation entering a black-body cavity by measuring its rise in temperature of the cavity.
