Breakdown Properties for Electrical Insulation Design of Double Pancake Coil Type HTS Transformer

Double Pancake Coil형 고온초전도 변압기의 전기적 절연 설계를 위한 절연파괴 특성

High temperature superconductors can only be applied against an engineering specification that has to be determined for each particular application form the design requirements for economic viability and for operation margins in service. However, in order to realize the HTS transformer, it is necessary to establish the high voltage insulation technique in cryogenic temperature. Therefore, the composite insulation of double pancake coil type transformer are described and ac breakdown voltage characteristics of liquid nitrogen($LN_{2}$) under HITS pancake coil electrode made by Bi-2223/Ag are studied. Breakdown in $LN_{2}$ is dominated electrode shape and distance. And we investigated AC breakdown properties of $LN_{2}$ and complex conition of cryogenic gaseous nitrogen($CGN_{2}$) obove a $LN_{2}$ surface. Also, the surface voltage of GFRP was measured as a function of thickness and electrode distance in $LN_{2}$ and complex condition of $CGN_{2}$ above a $LN_{2}$ surface. This research presented information of electrical insulation design for double pancake coil type HTS transformer.
