초록

The necessity of compact high temperature superconducting cables is more keenly felt in densely populated metropolitan areas. Because the compact high-temperature superconducting cables can be installed in ducts and tunnels, thereby reducing construction costs and making the use of underground space more effective, the effect of introducing it to the power system will be huge. Seoul, Korea, is selected as a review model for this paper. The loads are estimated by scenario based on a survey and analysis of 345kV and 154kV power supply networks in this area. Based on this, the following elements for an urban transmission system are examined. (1) A method of constructing a model system to introduce high-temperature superconducting cables to metropolitan areas is presented. (2) A case study is conducted through the analysis of power demand scenarios, and the amount of high-temperature superconducting cable to be introduced by scenario is examined. (3) The economy involved in expanding existing cables and introducing high-temperature superconducting cables(ducts or tunnels) following load increase in urban areas is examined and compared., and standards for current cable ducts are calculated. (4) The voltage level that can be accommodated by existing ducts is examined.
