For the fabrication of HTS power cable, multifilamentary Bi-2223/Ag tapes have been prepared using the powder-in-tube (PIT) process. After final heat treatment, these tapes have $I_{c}$ value of 43A, and$ J_{c}$ value of $28,000A/\textrm{cm}^2$(77K, 0T). Prototype 1000A class multistrand conductor(length~1m) was fabricated using these tapes(length~300m). This multistrand conductor was impregnated with low-temperature epoxy. The transportation properties of prototype 1000A class multistrand conductor has been evaluated at 77K, and yielding a current capacity up to 1200A.A.A.

An HTS power cable has multi-layer conductor structure to increase the current capacity. However, usually the current is not evenly distributed among the layers. This paper describes a method to make the current distribution more uniform and hence reduce the AC loss. Also. this paper shows recommendation for future cable conductor prototypes.

One important issue in the design and the optimization for conductor of a superconducting cable is the control of the current distribution flowing at each layers. In this paper, we calculated the self inductance of each layer and the mutual inductance between two layers from the magnetic field energy and investigated the effects of design parameters on the self and mutual inductances for 4-layer conductors with transport current distribution at each layer.

We surveyed the recent technical trends concerning high-Tc superconducting(HTS) Power cable R&D around the world, and proposed the course the HTS power cable R&D in Korea should take. The HTS power cable R&D in Korea need be started as soon as posible with focusing on the development and field test of the economical HTS conductors.

In reccent years the large capacity underground power transmission systems have been required gradually with the increasing demand of electric power, the increasing electric power system and the environmental limitations of an overhead transmission line in the city. But it is difficult to get the space for the underground power transmission lines because of complicated distributions of underground public facilities. But as the superconducting power cables have the large power transmission capacity, the high power transmission density, and low loss characteristics in comparison with a conventional cable, the necessity for their development are increasing. In this paper, the results of the conceptual design of HTS power cable is described.

Superconducting transmission power cable is one of interesting parts in power application using high temperature superconducting wire. One of important parameters in high-temperature superconducting (HTSC) cable design is transport current distribution because it is related with current transmission capacity and ac loss. In this paper, the transport current and magnetic field distributions at conducting layers were investigated through the analysis of the equivalent circuit for HTSC power cable with shield layer. The transport current distribution due to the pitch length and winding direction was improved in case of HTSC power cable with shield layer.

In order to improve the properties of high-temperature superconducting wire for superconducting cable system, we optimized the electro-polishing (EP), ion-beam assisted deposition (IBAD), superconducting (SC) layer, and baking (heat) treatment. The buffer layer was deposited on electro-polished substrate with RMS roughness ($R_{RMS}$) less than 5 nm. The IBAD process was carried out at $V_{beam}$: 1100 V and $V_{accel}$: 850 V that resulted in highly crystalline film of $LaMnO_3$. Chemical composition of SC layer is key to higher critical current, and we found that composition can be determined by surface color of SC layer. We adopt a proprietary contorl system based on RGB analysis of the surface and achieved critical current of 150 A/4 mm-width. The proposed baking treatment resulted in decreasing of about 10% of fraction defects.

A Bi-2223 tape has been developed for power applications such as power cables or transformers working at liquid nitrogen temperature. For such applications it is required to understand fault current characteristics of the Bi-2223 tape. In this paper, we report fault current characteristics using two types of samples, straight sample and pancake coil sample. It was found that the fault current characteristics of the Bi-2223 tape are depend on electrical insulations and fault durations strongly. Also it was shown that the fault current characteristics in the insulated straight sample are similar to those in the pancake sample with a conductor insulation. Finally, it was shown that the pancake sample with a layer insulation has better characteristics than that with a conductor insulation for fault currents.

In order to evaluate if the high-Tc superconducting(HTS) power cable is operating stably, the characteristics of the HTS power cable should be found out. The properties of HTS tapes by measuring the voltage with respect to the current can be archived. But, the HTS power cable is different from the case of HTS tapes. This method is invalid because of the electromagnetic fields caused by other HTS tapes. In this paper, the stability evaluation of the HTS cable was performed by the following procedure. First, the voltage-current characteristics of HTS tape were measured and the electromagnetic field distributions of the HTS power cable with the external magnetic field were analyzed. Second, the losses of the HTS power cable were calculated using the result of the measurement and the analysis. Finally, the stable operation of the HTS power cable was evaluated on the basis of the losses of the superconducting cable.
