✦ Synopsis

Wilson's method, which is commonly used for magnetization and loss measurement of superconducting magnets, has been thoroughly analysed with regardto its use with current pulses lasting ~ 1 s, The factors substantially affecting the error of loss measurement have been revealed and ways of depressing their influence have been found theoretically and demonstrated experimentally. The errors, introduced by digital recording and processing have also been analysed. According to the results of this investigation, the total error in loss measurement can be lowered to a few per cent.
