Abstract As a hot topic in recent physics, superconductors have attracted the attention of countless people. We demonstrate the feasibility of conducting experiments on superconductors under extremely crude conditions and perform several experiments and produce data. We used YBCO superconductors and liquid nitrogen to conduct related experiments. In conclusion, in the case of insufficient experimental conditions, the superconductor can still be partially suspended, which is sufficient to demonstrate the Meissner Effect, and exhibits various properties of the superconductor at the critical temperature.
