High-Tc superconducting current leads with multi-step and continually varied cross-sectional area are studied to reduce heat leak into cryostat and material use. Assuming conduction-cooled lead the cross-sectional area is reduced along the heat flow direction according to the increase of critical current density which increases with decreasing temperature. In this study, we also analyze the multi-step cross-sectional area High-Tc current leads. The multi-st데 current leads changes the cross-sectional area to have constant safety-factor at changed section. The heat leak into cryostat, total voume, safety-factor and the temperature profiles are compared to those of the constant safety-factor current leads. The developed methods are applied to the Bi-2223 superconductor sheathed with Ag-Au alloy.

The stability of high-temperature superconducting current leads for cryogenic devices are investigated. By assuming full transition from superconducting state to normal state at a transition temperature, the HTS current at a transition temperature, the HTS current lead shows bifurcation phenomenon. There is a bifurcation shape-factor, HTS leads have three steady state. Below the bifurcation shape-factor, the superconducting current lead is unconditionally stable, because there exists only one steady-factor HTS current lead is conditionally stable depending on the shape and intensity of disturbance.

In this paper, a high-temperature superconductor(HTS) current lead operating in current sharing mode is described. The minimum heat dissipation and the optimum safety factor(cross-sectional area) is obtained analytically for partial current sharing HTS leads. It is assumed that the current lead is in conduction cooled state, and the sheath material is the alloy of silver and gold. The reduced cross-sectional area results partial current sharing state, and consequently reduces conduction heat transfer, but the Joule heat generation is increased. The optimized HTS current lead is different from the conventional copper leads. In the copper leads, the minimum heat dissipation is obtained for the zero gradient of temperature at warm end. However, the temperature gradient at warm end is not zero when the HTS lead operates at minimum dissipation state.

972년 태백선을 시작으로 우리나라에 전기철도가 도입된 이래 수도권에 전기철도가 건설되어 운행되어왔고 최근에는 수도권 광역 전철망, 충북선 전철화, 경부선 전구간의 전철화 등 기존철도의 전철화 사업이 지속적으로 추진되고 있다 한편으로 경부고속철도의 건설과 함께 기존철도의 운행속도 향상, 시스템 보호 및 유지 보수의 현대화 등이 과제로 등장하였고 이를 해결하기 위하여 최신 전차선로 설비의 도입 등과 함께 전철 시스템의 전반적 기술검토의 필요성이 제기되었다.(중략)

Current leads of high $T_{c}$ superconductor were fabricated with Bi excess B $i_{2.2}$/S $r_{1.8}$/C $a_{1}$/C $u_{2}$/ $O_{x}$ composition by rapid cooling method. The dimensions of final samples were fixed 3 mm and 8 mm diameter with 50 mm length each To control uniform density the samples were preformed by CIP(Cold Isostatic Press) process and followed by partial or full melting process after raising up to 90$0^{\circ}C$ for 30min. Plate shaped microstructure was clearly observed adjacent to the Ag tube wall and the size of plate was about 100$\mu$m. However the severe destruction of growth orientation was shown in the inner growth part. critical temperature ( $T_{c}$) was about 53~71K after directional growth while Tc was decreased about 77~80 K before directional growth. After directional growth critical current( $I_{c}$) and critical current density( $J_{c}$) in the specimen of 8 mm diameter at 50 K were about 110 A and 280 A/c $m^2$ respectively.pectively.ely.

Electrical Railroads provide electric power, which can operate vehicles, via feeder wires. And the supplied current returns to the transformer substation through lines and ground net. In domestic cases, the configuration of ground net affecting such a return current mostly uses an exclusive earth method. However, along with the introduction to Gyeongbu HSL(High Speed Line), the concept of Common Earth was applied to Electrical Railroads. In this paper, based on the return currents analyzed to be measured in the electrified sections for the operation of High Speed Rails in existing lines, we analyze the relations between earth methods and return currents in electrified sections. For analysis, we utilize the measured values of return currents measured in track circuits in Gyeongbu HSL, and predictive values of those compared to the earth methods between Gyeongbu HSL and the existing electrified sections.

가공송전망 고전압화는 세계적으로는 1,000KV까지 검토되고 있으며 우리나라에서도 765KV를 시험 운전추진중에 있다. 송전선의 전류용량 증대방법으로서는 도체크기의 대형화, 다도체화 뿐만 아니라 경 알루미늄을 도체로 사용한 종래의 ACSR을 대체할 수 있는, 초내열 알루미늄선을 사용하여 허용전류를 증가시킨 STACIR의 채택이 확대되고 있다. 증용양화 송전선의 본격적 도입과 함께 송전선로 운영시에 발생하는 공해성, 환경저해성을 촤소화시키는 환경조화선로및 지역별 특성에 맞는 특수기능 전선에도 그 관심이 고조되고 있는바 도체재료와 구조에 대한 꾸준한 기술 개발로 송전선의 고신뢰화, 다기능화가 지속적으로 진행되고 있다. 우리나라의 경우도 1960년대에 ACRS이 가설된 이후 늘어나는 전력수요에 부응하기 위하여 1995년 STACIR의 154KV 의정부-동두천 송전선로 구간에 가설운전을 시작으로 신송전로의 시대에 진입했다고 볼 수 있다.

초전도 마그네트 시스템의 냉각방법 중, 액체 헬륨등의 극저온 유체를 이용한 액체냉각방식이 극저온 냉동기를 이용한 직접 전도냉각 방식에 비해 신뢰도가 높은 열적 안정성으로 인하여 현재도 많은 초전도 마그네트 시스템이 액체냉각방식을 이용하고 있다. 그러나, 고가의 극저온 액체의 재충전으로 인하여 경제성이 낮고 취급이 불편한 단점이 있다 이러한 액체냉각방식의 단점을 보완하고자 극저온 유체를 시스템 안에서 직접 응축하여 재충전을 하지 않는 재응축형 시스템을 개발하여 실험하였다. 실험에 사용한 초전도 마그네트 시스템은 상온보아 1270 mm. 최대자장 0.3 T로 설계되었고, 금속 전류도입선과 HTS 전류도입선을 복합적으로 사용하였으며, 복사차폐막 냉각용 극저온 냉동기와 헬륨 재응축용 극저온 냉동기를 사용하였다. 초전도 마그네트는 200 A에서 1600 gauss의 자장으로 운전하였고 극저온 용기에서는 0.05 bar의 압력으로 액체 헬륨이 증발하지 않고 유지되었다.

In most of radial distribution systems, the overcurrent protection coordination is adopted for the protection of apparatus and the improvement of electrical power system reliability. The protection coordination structure in distribution substation is composed of several circuit breakers(CB) with distribution lines originating from one substation bus under one transformer, which trip for their fault current. But sufficient analysis is necessary for the capacity of CB's in distribution systems with several distribution generations(DG). In this paper, a protection coordination method not to exceed the traditional capacity of CB's was proposed and certified through simulation by the PSCAD-EMTDC S/W.

In this paper, the current lead for superconducting device is studied by numerical method. The current lead is cooled by surrounded $N_{2}$ gas by natural convection. The heat conduction equation for current lead and boundary layer equation for $N_{2}$ gas must be solved simultaneously. The boundary layer equation for $N_{2}$ gas is highly nonlinear for varied temperature of current lead. So the linearization method is adopted for simplicity. Numerical results using natural convection cooling are compared with the conventional cooling methods such as conduction cooling and vapor cooling methods. The main difference of natural convection cooing is the non-zero temperature gradient at the top of current lead for the minimum heat dissipation into superconducting devices. For the optimized conduction-cooling and vapor-cooling current leads, the temperature gradient at the top of current lead is zero. Also, the heat flow at the cold end is much smaller than conduction cooling case.
