WHAT DOES PYRANOMETER MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Pyranometer

A pyranometer is a type of actinometer used to measure broadband solar irradiance on a planar surface and is a sensor that is designed to measure the solar radiation flux density from a field of view of 180 degrees. The name pyranometer stems from Greek, "pyr - πῦρ" meaning "fire" and "ano - ἄνω" meaning "above, sky". A typical pyranometer does not require any power to operate.
