필라멘트의 트위스트피치가 Bi-2223테이프의 통전손실에 미치는 영향에 대해 실험적으로 조사하였으며, 그 주요 결과는 Bi-2223테이프의 자기자계손실은 필라멘트의 트위스트피치에 의해서는 그다지 영향을 받지 않는 반면 외부교류자장 하에서 Bi-2223테이프에 발생되는 통전손실은 트위스트피치에 영향을 비교적 크게 받으며, 필라멘트의 트위스트피치가 작을수록 통전손실도 작아진다.

This paper deals with design and fabrication of heater-triggered switching system for the high-Tc superconducting (HTS) power supply with series-connected double-pancake load. Amongst all components, heater triggering is the most important element for the performance of HTS power supply. To fabricate the optimal heater-triggered system, its characteristics have been analysed through the simulation and expriment. The thermal analysis of switching parts of the Bi-2223 solenoid according to the heater input was carried out. Based upon the analysis, 8A electromagnet current and 1.5A DC Heater current were optimally derived, and 8s and 20s for the pumping period were selected in this experiment. In the experiment. the maximum pumping current reached about 24A with Bi-2223 pancake load of 6mH.

Long length of Bi-2223/Ag superconducting wives were fabricated by stacking and drawing process with advanced heat-treatment schedules. Intermediate annealing was carried out to increase the homogeneity and uniformity of the superconducting filaments embedded in the silver matrix. Phase modification from tetragonal to orthorhombic Bi-2212 by pre heat treatment(PHT) was executed to improve the texture and phase transformation of Bi-2223. Drawing stress was measured to predict the sausaging and stress limit. Rolling Parameters such as thickness. width and winding tension were investigated to roll the tape with uniformity. 1 km length of Bi-2223/Ag superconducting wires were fabricated without any breakage. Critical current (Je) of 270 m length of superconducting tapes was measured over than $70 A/cm^2$ continuously after final sintering.

Superconduction materials possess electrical/electronic and magnetic properties. Because superconduction materials is a ceramic powder, that can not be produced singlehandedly. So Ag sheathed Bi-2223 wire was produced by drawing process using powder-in-tube(PIT) method This superconductor has many difficulties to produce. The main difficulty is that the mechanical properties of the ceramic powder are very different from those of the Ag sheath. Actually, the fabrication of Ag sheathed Bi-2223 superconductor by PIT tends to lead to non-uniformity in the core thickness during drawing process. That is so called “Sausaging”. This study analyzed a sausaging using the finite-element method. Also, Effects of drawing process parameters on a sausaging has been carried out using finite element method. Finally, A way to prevent a sausaging has been discussed.

This paper deals with the fabrication and characteristic experiment of a high-Tc superconducting(HTSC) power supply using by Bl-2223 tape. The purpose of this research is to apply real HTSC load. This system consists of two heaters, an electromagnet, a Bi-2223 solenoid and a Bi-2223 pancake load. In the experiment. 17sec and 8.5sec were used for pumping period. Mechanism of the superconducting switch is used for heater-trigger. In experiment, the pumping-current has reached about 1.2A.

For large scale applications of high temperature superconductor (HTS) such as transmission cables, motors and generators, long length of flexible HTS conductor is required. Currently, Bi-2223 HTS tape is capable of being fabricated in longer than 100 m length by industrial processes. In this study, we fabricated 100 m 19 filamentary Bi-2223 ($Bi_{1.8}Pb_{0.4}Sr_2Ca_2O_{10+x}$) HTS tape by PIT (Power in Tube) process. Critical current(IC) of this long length tape was measured 18.5 A at 77K, self field. Critical current of 100 m length tape was mainly resulted from the increase of inhomogeneity in oxide from the increase of inhomogeneity in oxide layer. Engineering critical current (Je=Ic/total tape cross-section area) that is important factor for practical applications and fabrication cost was measured 2.2 kA/cm2.

Influences of bending strain on the critical current (Ic) were investigated in Bi-2223 superconducting tapes at 77K. The effect of bending mode on the Ic degradation behavior was discussed in viewpoints of test procedure, n-value and damage morphology Especially, in this paper, we reported the Ic behavior in Ag alloy/Bi-2223 multifilamentary superconducting tapes under bending occurred within a width plane of the tape which was called as a hard bending. The Ic degradation under hard bending appeared significantly as compared with that under easy bending. The n-value decreased slightly with the increase in bending strain under the hard bending.

Among the various processing techniques used in HTS wire fabrication, the PIP(Powder In Tube) method is currently one of the most promising for applications on an industrial scale. In this study, we have fabricated Bi-2223/Ag superconducting tapes using the modified PIT process, where several process factors were changed and improved, ie., powder packing, drawing, rolling and heat treatment. We obtained Bi-2223 tape that have high critical current, 46 a at 77.3 K, have high critical current, 46A at 77.3 K, self field although the tape was not pressed but only rolled. The critical current of 100m class long length tape was measured 21.6A at the same criterion. Besides, the critical current of Bi-2223/Ag tape was measured applying magnetic fields with different directions at various temperatures.

Long length of Bi-2223 superconducting wires were fabricated by stacking, drawing process with different precursor owders and different heat-treatment histories. The precursor powders were 2 kinds of Pb content. And a part of the tapes were experienced pre-annealing process which caused tetragonal structure of Bi-2212 phase to orthorhombic structure of it was during drawing process. We confirmed the transformation of Bi-2212 phase from tetragonal structure to orthorhombic structure and reduction of second phases. We designed and made a continuous Ic measurement system for Bi-2223/Ag HTS tape. We could achieve best Ic of 65 A at the Bi-2223/Ag tape using low Pb content of precursor powder and experienced pre-annealing process.

Influences of transverse compressive stress on the critical current ( $I_{c}$) in AgMg and AgMn alloy sheathed Bi-2223 tapes were investigated at 77 K and 0 T. The $I_{c}$ degradation behavior depending on sample specifications was discussed in viewpoints of n-value and damage morphology. As a result, Bi-2223 tapes showed a significant drop in $I_{c}$ for stresses greater than 50MPa. The AgMg sheathed Bi-2223 tapes representing higher $I_{c}$ showed a lower $\sigma$$_{irr}$ and a significant $I_{c}$ degradation with increase in compressive stress. There existed a voltage tap separation dependency of the $I_{c}$ degradation behavior caused by the transverse compressive stress.sive stress.s.
