Description
It is important to measure the temperature of the muon-production rotating target (hereinaf-ter referred to as "rotating target") in order to detect problems of rotating target quickly.
Thermocouples have been installed on the cooling jacket to measure the temperature rise due to thermal radiation from the rotating tar-get. Since the time constant of the thermocou-ples is on the order of minutes, it is not possible to stop the accelerator quickly in case of a sig-nificant temperature rise. In order to construct a rapid temperature detection system for rotating targets, we have installed an infrared camera.
We successfully measured temperature distribution of the rotating target during the 1-MW operation observed by the infrared camera.
