- The paper describes a method for measuring the pressure dependence of the thermal conductivity and the heat capacity of hard materials and single crystals. Two parallel metal strips are evaporated onto a flat surface of the specimen, one being used as a heater, the other as a resistance thermometer. The appropriate theoretical expression for a specimen in a liquid medium is fitted to the temperature, sampled at constant time intervals. The thermophysical properties of the liquid high‐pressure medium are taken from hot‐wire experiments. The procedure has been thoroughly tested at atmospheric pressure using an MgO crystal and glass as specimens and liquids of different characteristics in lieu of high‐pressure medium. The accuracy attainable was found to be 3% or better, the standard deviation of the measurements being about 0.3%. The potential of the system was demonstrated by measurements on single‐crystal MgO under pressures up to 1 GPa.
