초전도케이블의 기술적 경제적 타당성에 대한 논의가 계속 진행되고 있는 가운데 이를 검증하기 위한 실계통 시험이 미국, 중국 및 일본을 포함한 주요 선진국들에서 이루어지고 있다. (1) 대용량 송전 및 절연성능 측면에서 장점을 가지고 있는 초전도케이블이 실제계통에서 적용한 예가 지금까지 많지 않은 이유는 막대한 초기투자 비용과 함께 신기술 도입에 따른 기술적 신뢰성 확보를 꼽을 수 있다. 특히 케이블 자체의 전기적 특성과 함께 냉각시스템의 신뢰성은 초전도케이블 기술의 상용화를 위해서 반드시 확보되어야 하며 냉각시스템의 고효율와 함께 장기운전에 따른 냉각시스템의 안정성 및 기기적 특징들이 우선적으로 파악되어야 할 것이다. 본 논문에서는 냉각시스템의 신뢰성을 검증하기 위한 실험의 일환으로 전류와 냉각시스템에 내장되어 있는 히터를 이용하여 열부하를 동시에 인가, 냉각시스템의 냉각용량 과부하 상태를 모의하여 냉각시스템의 반응성을 평가하였다.

22.9kV 50MVA HTS power cable has been developed and tested by Korea Electrotechnology Research Institute and LS Cable Company and it was supported by a grant from Center for Applied Superconductivity Technology of the 21st Century Frontier R&D Program. In this paper, DC Ic of 100m HTS cable which is installed at Kochang testing station was measured and analyzed. A measurement technique of DC Ic used by resistance and inductance removal method is established.

The object of this study is to find the optimal insulation design conditions of a HTS power cable cryostat. The optimum condition of a cable cryostat is obtained by varying types of MLIs, cable core weights, spacer diameters, winding pitches and MLI layer numbers. As the weight of cable core is increased, conduction heat transfer from surroundings to cable cryostat is increased. But as the spacer pitch is increased from 120 mm to 200 mm, the heat leak of cable cryostat remains almost constant. The optimal number of MLI layers is suggested. Double ply MLI is more effective than triple ply MLI and the insulation effect is best when the number of MLI layers is 36.

The model of terminal cryostat for HTS power cable is conceptually designed. In this paper we defined that heat loads of the terminal cryostat was only cooled by the liquid nitrogen without cooling gas. Total heat loss calculated by analytical and numerical methods are 46.4W at 0A and 69W at 1260A for the 3-Phase HTS power cable system of 50MW, 22.9kV.

High temperature super conducting(HTS) cable system for power transmission are under development that will be cooled by sub-cooled liquid nitrogen to provide cooling of the cable and termination. The target of the development during the first 3-years stage is 22.9kV/50MVA class and 30m length cold dielectric type 3-phase power cable. The essential features of the HTS cable cryogenic system and performance conditions for the design of power cable will be discussed.

In this study, we performed long lange power transmission expansion planning for conceptual design of HTS power cable in Seoul area. Since the HTS power cable has the high power transmission density and low loss characteristics in comparison with conventional power cables, the HTS power cable is introduced between the downtown and the suburbs in the future system in order to verify the feasibility of the HTS power transmission cables technically and to encourage the research activity in the area.

The HTS power cable is composed of 2 layers for transmission and 1 layer for shield. The superconducting tapes of transmission layers and shield layer are wound in a cylindrical shape with a winding pitch. The radius of cylinder and the number of superconducting tapes are decided considering to the transmission current capacity and the critical current of superconducting tapes. The increasement of transmission current capacity will increase in volume of HTS cable system. In this paper, the composition method of supercondcuting power cable using the multi-cable is presented. The coated conductor tape can be wound on the smaller cylinder because it has the smaller critical bending diameter than the BSCCO tape. A small-scale cable was composed using the coated conductor tapes and a multi-cable is composed using a small-scale cable considering to transmission current capacity. Even increase of transmission current capacity, this method has advantage that the HTS superconducting power cable can be composed easily. The 22.9 kV and 154 kV superconducting power cable was composed using the presented method.
