Thermal Conductivity Cell as a Pressure Gauge

A thermal conductivity measurement cell is utilized as a high pressure gauge for hydrostatic media. It is based upon the pressure dependence of the thermal conductivity of the media. The gauge offers electrical readout and high sensitivity compared to a typical manganin resistance cell.
