Don't forget sublimation.
Changing from solid to gas without going to liquid first.
And it's opposite--deposition (gas to solid).

As in?...
I am trying to work out what you suggest, do you mean they get "Thicker" if you try to move something through them?....

Ok, working with this, how would that work.... Get a chamber with a tethered model aircraft wing, and "Blow" air over it, see how much lift you get, replace that with nominated gas, and see what the results are?....

Well except that the Inner core is a solid, an much of the Heating of the core is not due to pressure but rather heat caused by the radioactive decay of elements in the core.
There are temperature and pressure conditions at which various substances can behave differently than that which we expect at surface conditions, for example Pegmatite crystals formed of mineral like muscovite mica are formed by superheated water at many 100 degrees C but still liquid due to the pressure.

That can be done.... The fans I have in mind are variable, and I was expecting to have force gages attached to the wing.

addendum: by "both" I meant both drag and lift.
