초전도변압기 턴간 절연재료의 V-t 특성

V-t characteristics of turn insulator of HTS transformer

In the response to increasing the demands for electrical energy, much effort aimed to develop and commercialize HTS power equipments have been made around the world. Among them HTS transformer is one of very Promising one. For the development, the cryogenic insulation technology should be established. In this paper V-t characteristics of turn insulator, Kpaton, among insulation components of HTS transformer was discussed with Weibull distribution and n-value. V-t tests of Kapton were conducted using Cu tape electrodes shaped HTS tape depending on wrapping number. The n-values of 2 and 3 times wrapped tape are 27.54 and 30.58. Although breakdown strength of the 3 times one is higher than the 2 times the 3 times one have more weak points with overlapping so it have higher probability of incidental accidents.
