Inter-Phase Transformers를 이용한 고온초전도 케이블의 층간 전류 등분배 방안

A method for uniform current distribution of HTS cable using Inter-Phase Transformers

Uniform current distribution among conductor layers in HTS cables using IPTS (inter-phase transformers) was proposed. Conventional methods for current distribution, in which resistors are inserted to conductor layers, causes additional loss. In contrast, IPTS, which use magnetic coupling, make it possible that the current in parallel circuits is distributed uniformly with any load, and minimize the loss. In this study, IPTS were designed and fabricated for examination of uniform current distribution in the conductor layers of HTS cables. The ITP was designed through calculation of its impedance that can cancel the inductance of the conduction layers.
