✦ Synopsis

An apparatus for measuring the thermal conductance of insulating mechanical supports under compression is described. It requires no installation of thermometers on the sample. Results on sample supports are presented by plots of the heat conducted between two temperatures as a function of the force compressing the support. The importance of contact resistance is discussed.
