| Brief Description: | As solar technology essentially involves the conversion of the energy of the sun into other forms of energy, i.e. heat, electrical, biotechnological, etc., the terminology involved thus comprises terms taken from the physics of the process involved and the materials and engineering requirements of the conversion technology. Specialised terms from the field of solar technology are rarely found in general dictionaries, so this five-language dictionary will fill a major gap and find wide and varied usage. Comprising almost 2,000 terms in English, German, French, Spanish, and Italian, it will be an invaluable reference for all those concerned with translating literature on this subject as well as for those who have to read and understand the literature on solar technology in languages other than their own. |
