SUPERCONDUCTING EQUIPMENT

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a superconducting equipment capable of measuring temperature distribution or distortion distribution of a superconducting wire at a temperature lower than liquid nitrogen temperature without mounting numerous thermometers. SOLUTION: The superconducting equipment is provided with the superconducting wire 4, a optical fiber 3 arranged along the superconducting wire 4 and a measuring part 10 optically connected to the optical fiber 3. The measuring part 10 propagates the light into the optical fiber 3, receives a Brillouin scattering light of the light from the optical fiber 3, and outputs at least either one of the distortion distribution and the temperature distribution of the superconducting wire 4 based on the Brillouin scattering light.
