| Research Abstract |
We have developed a quench detecting technique with a dual-core optical fiber< The fiberf has two single-mode optical cores in one fiber.
We performed a basic experiment and demonstrated that a temperauture rise of 1.0 K could be detected at 4.2 K by this dual-core optical fiber Sensitivity of this technique can be improvel by using a longer fiberf and a more sensitive detector of the interference fiber shifts. Using this technique, it was demonstrated that a quench was detectbable. The optical fiber placed in a magnet in a magnet winding is subject to stresses by electromagnetic force. There is a possibility that the interference fringes shift due to the electromagnetic stress. In the experiment, it was also demonstrated that the electromagnetic force-stress did not shift the interference fringes.
A quench detector using this optical method is immune from electromagnetic noises and free from troubles caused by high voltage tension. Porblems arising when applying this technique to a large scale magnet and a possible improving technique in the instrumentation are discussed.
