Abstract

The flux-lock type SFCL consists of transformer with primary and secondary windings connected to a superconducting element in serial. It can be divided into the subtractive and the additive polarity windings according to the winding direction. It could change the fault current limiting characteristics according to the inductance ratio between the coil 1 and coil 2. We investigated the voltage-current characteristics of the flux-lock type SFCL according to the increment of applied voltage. When the applied voltage of the SFCL with the subtractive and the additive polarity windings was increased a initial limiting current ($I_{ini}$) and the quench time of the superconducting element were increased. The recovery time of the superconducting element was increased by increment of applied voltage. Therefore, it was confirmed that recovery characteristics in the flux-lock type SFCL were largely dependent on the consumed energy of a superconducting element because of increment of the consumption power into the superconducting element.

자속구속형 초전도 한류기는 1차 권선과 초전도 소자가 직렬로 연결된 2차 권선을 갖는 변압기로 구성되어 있다. 이 초전도 한류기는 결선방향에 따라 감.가극 결선으로 나누어진다. 1차 권선과 2차 권선의 인덕턴스 비에 따라 자속구속형 초전도 한류기는 사고전류의 제한특성을 제어할 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 인가전압에 따른 자속구속형 초전도 한류기의 전압 전류 특성을 분석하였다. 감 가극 결선된 자속구속형 초전도 한류기의 인가전압을 증가시켰을 때, 초기에 제한되는 전류 및 초전도 소자의 ??치 시간은 증가하였다. 초전도 소자의 회복시간은 인가전압이 증가함에 따라 증가하였다. 그러므로 자속구속형 초전도 한류기의 회복특성은 초전도 소자의 소비전력이 증가하기 때문에 초전도 소자에서 소비되는 에너지에 크게 의존한다는 것을 확인할 수 있었다.
