| user advantage | brukerfordel | |
| utilisation of calorific value (Calorific value is the heat per unit mass produced by complete combustion of a given substance. Calorific values are used to express the energy values of fuels; usually these are expressed in megajoules per kilogram. They are also used to measure the energy content of foodstuffs; i.e. the energy produced when the food is oxidized in the body. The units here are kilojoules per gram. Calorific values are measured using a bomb calorimeter (apparatus consisting of a strong container in which the sample is sealed with excess oxygen and ignited electrically. The heat of combustion at constant volume can be calculated from the resulting rise in temperature)) | brennverdi-utnytting | |
| utilisation of pesticides (Use of chemical or biological substances to deliberately kill unwanted plants or animals) | bruk av bekjempingsmiddel | |
| vacuum industry | vakuumindustri | |
| valley (Any low-lying land bordered by higher ground; especially an elongate, relatively large, gently sloping depression of the Earth's surface, commonly situated between two mountains or between ranges of hills or mountains, and often containing a stream with an outlet.
