Aneroid barometer An instrument for measuring atmospheric pressure.
Aneroid Barometer: A barometer whose pressure sensor consists of an aneroid capsule, a thin, hollow disk partially evacuated and sealed.
ANEROID BAROMETER: A barometer which measures atmospheric pressure using one or a series of aneroid capsules.
Aneroid barometer An instrument designed to measure atmospheric pressure. It contains no liquid.
Annual range of temperature The difference between the warmest and coldest months at any given location.
Aneroid barometer A portable instrument that utilizes a flexible metal chamber and spring to measure air pressure; may be used as an altimeter.
Aneroid Barometer - a barometer in which the action of atmospheric pressure in bending a metallic surface is made to move a pointer ...
aneroid barometer—A barometer which operates on the principle of having changing atmospheric pressure bend a metallic surface which, in turn, moves a pointer across a scale graduated in units of pressure.

Another type of barometer, the aneroid barometer, uses a small, flexible metal box called an aneroid cell.

Aneroid Barometer - a can that consistently changes shape when the atmospheric pressure changes. A needle attached to it can point to the correct pressure.
An aneroid barometer, (ANEROID, Meaning without liquid)., can be purchased from many department stores for around $30 and up.
An aneroid barometer calibrated to indicate altitude in feet instead of units of pressure. It is read accurately only in a standard atmosphere and when the correct altimeter setting is used.
Pressure Altitude ...
Altimeter - An aneroid barometer calibrated to indicate altitude instead of pressure.
Altitude (of the Sun) - The angle of the Sun above the horizon (sun angle).
The two principal types are aneroid and mercurial. Barometric altimeter Same as pressure altimeter. Barometric column Same as mercury column.
For an example, see aneroid barometer. BAROMETER An instrument used to measure atmospheric pressure. Two examples are the aneroid barometer and the mercurial barometer. BAROMETRIC PRESSURE The pressure exerted by the atmosphere at a given point.
Pressure altimeters use an aneroid barometer with a scale graduated in altitude instead of pressure.
Pressure AltimeterAn aneroid barometer calibrated to indicate altitude in feet instead of units of pressure. It is read accurately only in a standard atmosphere and when the correct altimeter setting is used.
An aneroid barometer uses a small, flexible metal box called an aneroid cell. The box is tightly sealed after some of the air is removed, so that small changes in external air pressure cause the cell to expand or contract.
The motion of the index of an aneroid barometer after it has been subjected to a large and rapid change in pressure. This movement is a slow adjustment of the index toward the correct pressure.
Two types of commonly used barometers are the aneroid barometer and mercury barometer.

A device used to measure atmospheric pressure. The two most common barometers are the mercury barometer and the aneroid barometer. The mercury barometer was initially developed by Evangelista Torricelli in 1644.

Barometric Pressure: The actual pressure value indicated by a pressure sensor.
BAROMETER An instrument used to measure atmospheric pressure. Two examples are the aneroid barometer and the mercurial barometer.
The package of instruments is attached to a helium filled free-flying balloon comprising an aneroid barometer and sensors for temperature (using the so-called "Thermocap" temperature sensor), humidity and a radio transmitter.
However, you should not expect a high degree of accuracy when using many barometers bought for 'decorative' use, and if you intend making weather reports for the synoptic network using a precision aneroid barometer (or similar), ...
