세계가 점차적으로 "전화(電化)"됨에 따라 전기 에너지의 효과적인 분배와 사용이 급격히 중요하게 되었다. 일반 도체를 통한 전류의 흐름은 도체의 저항에 의해 줄열을 발생시켜 전기 에너지의 손실을 일으키고 결국은 에너지와 경제적 자원의 낭비를 초래하게 된다. 초전도체의 저항은 직류 전류에서는 0, 교류 전류에서는 거의 0이기 때문에 초전도체를 이용하면 전력 소자 및 기기의 부피와 무게를 현저히 줄일 수 있는 반면에 모든 전기 시스템의 효율을 향상시킬 수 있고, 에너지 사용의 절감에 따라 환경 문제에 도움을 줄 수 있다. 사고 전류 제한기의 설계에 있어서, 권선형태에 따른 솔레노이드 마그네트와 팬케이크 마그네트를 설계, 제작하여 자장 특성 및 한류 특성을 비교 하였다. 2세대 고온 초전도 선재로 불리는 YBCO 박막형 초전도 선재를 이용하여 동작 전류 증대를 위한 다병렬 솔레노이드 마그네트와 다병렬 팬케이크 마그네트를 제작하였다. 이를 이용하여 440 V/ 630 A급 초전도 사고 전류 제한기와 2 kA 급 대전류 통전 사고 전류 제한 모듈을 설계, 제작하여 단락 특성 시험을 수행하였다. 한편, 자장 응용 기기에 적용 가능한 더블 팬케이크 마그네트를 제 2 세대 초전도선재를 이용하여 설계, 시작하였다. 2세대 선재는 1세대 선재에 비하여 20 T 이상의 외부 자장에 대한 특성이 우수하여 고자장 마그네트 시스템에 더욱 적합하다. 이에 초전도 마그네트 보호를 위한 상전도 영역 전파 실험을 수행하여 CC 선재의 안정도를 측정하였다. 또한 영구전류모드 운전과 플럭스 펌프를 통한 전류 충전에 대한 연구도 병행하였다.

AC loss which is generated in an HTS wire varies with the direction of the magnetic field. This paper calculated and measured the AC loss in the HTS double pancake windings. Brandt equation is used to calculate the loss by perpendicular magnetic field. Calorimetric method is used to measure the AC loss. Results of calculated AC loss are compared with measured AC loss.

Superconducting Electrodynamic suspension(EDS) system is generated by the interaction between the magnetic field made by the induced the eddy current in the ground conductor and the moving magnetic field made by onboard superconducting magnet. The levitation force of EDS system, which is proportional to the strength of the moving magnetic field, becomes saturated according to the increase of the velocity. Especially, the levitation force is influenced by the structure of HTS magnet and ground magnet. This paper deals with the optimal design condition for the HTS levitation magnet. The 3-D numerical analysis with FEM was used to find the distribution of the magnetic field, the optimal coil structure, and the calculation of the levitation force.

Magnetization loss which is generated in HTS wire varies with the direction of the external magnetic field. This paper calculates the magnetization loss in an HTS transformer winding, where effects of the direction of magnetic field are considered. Kim model is used to consider the variation of the critical current with magnetic field and Brandt equation is used to calculate the loss by perpendicular magnetic field in transformer winding. Magnetization loss in an HTS transformer can be calculated more precisely with this paper.

This paper presents conceptual design and 3-D electromagnetic analysis of IMVA transformer with BSCCO-2223 High Tc Superconducting (HTS) tapes. The rated voltages of each sides of the transformer are 22.9 kV and 6.6 kV, and double pancake windings were adopted. High voltage and Low voltage sides were composed of several double pancake windings. Four HTS tapes were wound in parallel for the windings of low voltage side and were transposed in order to distribute the currents equally in each conductor The transformer core was designed as a shell type core made of laminated silicon steel plates and the core is separated with the windings by a cryostat with Fiberglass Reinforced Plastics(FRP). A sub-cooling system using L$N_2$ were designed to maintain the coolant temperature 65K. Finally perpendicular components of magnetic field applied to tapes were calculated 0.247 in the rated operation using 3-D analysis. A real 1MVA HTS transformer will be manufactured in near future based on the design parameters presented in this paper.

In a research and development team of high temperature superconducting (HTS) transformer for power distribution, prior to manufacture a single phase 1MVA 22.9 kV/6.6 kV HTS transformer, a 1MVA transformer for insulation test with windings made of copper tapes with the same size as BSCCO-2223 HTS tape was manufactured. The test transformer was composed of both the copper windings of double pancake type and the shell type core of laminated silicon steel plates. The characteristics tests of the test transformer were performed, such as no load test, load test and short test at 77k using liquid nitrogen. Insulation tests, lightning impulse test, power-frequency voltage test and external insulation test, were accomplished also.

A double pancake winding method is widely used to make the superconducting magnet, using high temperature superconductor (HTS) tape. In the double pancake winding method, the joints with contact resistances between double pancake coils are inevitably needed. The electrical joule heating on the contacts causes refrigerant loss during operation. And a space outside the winding, for splices and mechanical support, is more than that for its layer-wound equivalent. In this paper, a double pancake winding method in order to reduce the number of the joints was proposed. Both of the double pancake coils using the conventional winding method and the proposed winding method have been fabricated and tested to make the solution technically feasible in the double pancake winding method. Especially, critical-current tests of the fabricated double pancake coils were conducted in order to show the same performance and confirm contact resistances between double pancake coils.

This paper presents the design and test results of a 10kVA single phase HTS transformer which is operating at 77K. Double pancake windings with BSCCO -2223 HTS tape and GFRP cryostat with room temperature bore are used in the transformer. Four double pan cake windings were used in pancake windings are connected in parallel to conduct the secondary current of 45.4A. the rated voltages of each winding are 440/220V. Numerical calculation using Finite Element Method was used to evaluated the performance of each arrangement. Considering the magnetizing reactance, leakage reactance, electrical insulation and the circulating current in low voltage winding which had two windings in parallel, HLLH arrangement was finally chosen. Estimation of the AC loss, magnetizing loss and self field loss, in the design stage, where effects of perpendicular field and parallel field are considered. Room temperature bore type cryostat has been constructed and its heat loss was measured.
