Definitions and Meaning of sundial in English

sundial noun

  1. timepiece that indicates the daylight hours by the shadow that the gnomon casts on a calibrated dial

    छाया यंत्र, धूपघड़ी, नरयंत्र

Description

A sundial is a horological device that tells the time of day when direct sunlight shines by the apparent position of the Sun in the sky. In the narrowest sense of the word, it consists of a flat plate and a gnomon, which casts a shadow onto the dial. As the Sun appears to move through the sky, the shadow aligns with different hour-lines, which are marked on the dial to indicate the time of day. The style is the time-telling edge of the gnomon, though a single point or nodus may be used. The gnomon casts a broad shadow; the shadow of the style shows the time. The gnomon may be a rod, wire, or elaborately decorated metal casting. The style must be parallel to the axis of the Earth's rotation for the sundial to be accurate throughout the year. The style's angle from horizontal is equal to the sundial's geographical latitude.

सौर घड़ी का प्रयोग सूर्य की दिशा से समय का ज्ञान करने के लिए किया जाता था। इन घड़ियों की कार्यशैली और क्षमता दिन के समय तक सीमित होती थी क्योंकि यह रात के समय काम नहीं कर पाती थीं। इसके फिर भी विश्व में समय जानने हेतु सबसे पहले इनका प्रयोग किया गया था। इन्हीं घड़ियों को आधार बनाकर समय बताने वाली अन्य घड़ियों का आविष्कार हुआ था। भारत में प्राचीन वैदिक काल से सौर घड़ियों का प्रयोग होता रहा है। सूर्य सिद्धांत में सौर घड़ी द्वारा समय मापन के शुद्ध तरीके अध्याय 3 और 13 में वर्णित हैं।
