A method of detecting a defect in a porous body (1) includes applying a light beam (13) to fine particles (12) discharged from the porous body (1), and detecting the light and shade of scattered light caused by the fine particles (12) to detect the position of a defect, wherein the light and shade of the scattered light is detected at a position facing the light beam (13). When a light source that emits the light beam (13) is defined as an origin (11), a position in a plane formed by the light beam (13) corresponding to a center of an end face of the porous body (1) through which the fine particles (12) are discharged is defined as a center point (C2), a straight line that extends from the origin (11) toward the center point (C2) is defined as 1 1 , a straight line that extends from the origin (11) toward a detection position (16) of the scattered light is defined as 1 2 , and the angle formed by the straight line 1 1 and the straight line 1 2 in the plane formed by the light beam (13) is defined as � 1 , the light and shade of the scattered light is preferably detected at a detection position (16) at which the angle � 1 is 0 to 80�. According to this method, a defect can be detected with high sensitivity. |
