Abstract:
1. A cell assembly for use in a high-pressure cubic press, comprising: a substantially tubular heating element including: a pressure transmitting medium extending about at least the substantially tubular heating element; a gasket medium defining a receiving space that receives at least the substantially tubular heating element and the pressure transmitting medium; a proximal annular electrical contact extending about and electrically contacting the substantially tubular heating element, the proximal annular electrical contact including a flange section that electrically contacts the substantially tubular heating element at only the proximal periphery of the proximal end region thereof, the proximal annular electrical contact does not extend over the proximal mouth of the substantially tubular heating element, the flange section of the proximal annular electrical contact extending axially along the substantially tubular heating element and disposed between the substantially tubular heating element and the pressure transmitting medium; and a distal annular electrical contact extending about and electrically contacting the substantially tubular heating element, the distal annular electrical contact including a flange section that electrically contacts the substantially tubular heating element at only the distal periphery of the distal end region thereof, the distal annular electrical contact does not extend over the distal mouth of the substantially tubular heating element, the flange section of the distal annular electrical contact extending axially along the substantially tubular heating element and disposed between the substantially tubular heating element and the pressure transmitting medium.
