Power cable of an AC arc welder can surround a body of worker at the moment of welding. Applying the boundary element method, we calculated current densities induced in organs inside a worker to study the magnetic field reduction characteristics of shielding wear materials. We knew shielding wear with high permeability materials lowers current density more than high conductivity materials. We also found current density was lowest when high permeability materials were inside high conductivity materials in double layer shielding wear.

Superconductor is consolidated, for required current capacity, with proper numbers of basic strands which are multifilamentary composites. Althouth superconductors are perfectly loss-free under DC conditions of current and field, AC losses occur under time-varying condition of the current and field. The AC losses are a controllable inherent characteristics of supercondectors. The AC losses dependent on the changing rate of current and field can be reduced by reducing the filament diameter. On the other hand, finer filament results in manufacturing cost increase. Therefore, in this paper optimization technique of superconductor for SMES is proposed from the viewpoint of AC loss reduction and manufacturing cost increase. The case study shows that the technique can be effectively used for the design of superconductor for SMES, appreciating the influence of various parameters related to superconductor itself and operating condition of SMES. As a result of the case study, it is confirmed that the technique is more effective for the design of superconductor for SMES for electric power power system stabilization rather then SMES for energy storage.

This paper presents calculated and measured AC losses of the HTS pancake coil. Magnetic field in the HTS coil under operating conditions was calculated by FEM. Results of measured ac loss in 4-stacked short sample were used in the AC loss calculation. Various methods, such as, electric method, calorimetric method, wattmeter method, were used to measure the AC loss.

By appliying an slternate pulsed magnetic field -generated by using a sequential ignition circuit and a magnet exciting circuit- with peak value of about 10 T to the rod type Nd based magnet Nd2Fe12.7Cr1.3B with length of 5 mm and diameter of 3.6 mm, the basic magnetic properties such as saturation magnetization, residual magnetization, coercivity, maximum energy products, magnetic anisotropy and anisotropic field are investigated with obtaining the major and minor J-H loops of the magnet. The increase in coercivity due to eddy currents in ac measurement of coercivity is calculated considering eddy current loss by analyzing a wave of generating magnetic field. The average coercivity calculated for the magnet is about 12.2 kOe, anisotropy magnetic field and anisotropic constant are measured as 60 kOe 2.43 Mj/$m^3$, respectively.

Large AC loss from the second generation (2G) high temperature superconducting (HTS) wires has been one of the major bottlenecks in power applications with HTS materials. Moreover, the large power applications also require the large current capacity from the HTS wires, which makes them produce larger AC losses. In order to reduce the AC loss from the HTS conductors with large current capacity, an HTS compact cable with some striations on the superconducting layers has been proposed. In this paper, we prepared some sample HTS compact conductors with striations, and measured their magnetization loss from the external magnetic field. We also made some slits on the superconducting layer of the HTS wire by laser cutting to reduce the aspect ratio of the superconducting layers. It would make the low eddy current loss and magnetic decoupling. Finally, the magnetization losses of the sample HTS compact conductors were measured and analyzed.

In this paper, we investigated the frequency dependences of AC loss and the magnetic properties of a superconductor using magnetization method. We used the YBCO bulk superconductor sample which has a square-shaped cross sectional area of $6mm{\times}6mm$. and 43mm-long in axial direction. The applied AC magnetic field was parallel to the direction of sample axis. It is observed that YBCO bulk has the diamagnetic properties. AC loss calculation of YBCO bulk superconductor was performed by evaluating the total area of magnetization traces. We performed two cases of experiments, one for $B_m<B_p$ and the other for $B_m<B_p$. The experiments showed that the AC loss dependences on frequency were different in each mode, as was indicated in other publications.

In this paper, the effect of magnetic field was measured on NOx(NO+NO2) removal and consumption power for wire-plate plasma reactor with magnetic field applied to electric field vertically. NOx of the simulated diesel engine flue gas were removed by the corona discharge generated by DC, AC and Pulsed voltages in wire-plate reactor. Consumption power increased with discharge voltage. However, when magnetic field was applied to electric field vertically, consumption power slightly decreased. NOx removal rate and arc transition voltage for plasma reactor with magnetic field were higher than those for plasma reactor without magnetic field. Consumption power decreased, however NOx removal significantly increased, when water vapour bubbled by dry air was put into simulated flue gas.

This thesis is aimed to obtain efficiently economically any desired phases and single phase transformer without unbalance by using only a new transformer, applying the theory of rotating magnetic field. The brief construction and principle is as floow: two pieces of similar ring cores, triangular cores or polygonal cores are located on the upper and lower sides with equidistance. And the some number of similar leg cores, shaped a square-pillar or a sylinder, are arranged at equidistant of the core section. Ring windings or polyphase windings of AC machines are adopted as a winding method on the upper and lower cores. Three phase AC is applied to the primary windings on these cores so that the rotating magnetic field is induced on the cores and this magnetic fluxes pass through each of the secondary windings on the leg-cores with some difference in time.

Search coil magnetometer has been used for detection of ac magnetic field with high sensitivity. To reduce demagnetizing factor of core and increase S/N ratio of search coil magnetometer, the core was divided by two parts and coil was wound on each cores. Two coils were connected serially and put into amplifier as differential mode. Constructed 120 mm length search coil magnetometer shows linearity of 0.03%, sensitivity of 9.3 mV/nT, and resolution of 20 pT at 1 Hz.

It is important to estimate the total AC loss which is the total energy, or power, dissipated in the superconductor in the simultaneous application of AC transport current and an AC external magnetic field. Experimental and numerical works on AC loss estimation of high $T_c$ superconductors in the author's group are reviewed. The method and the set-up for total AC loss measurements are described. The experimental results for a twisted Bi-2223 multifilamentary tape and a Y-123 mm conductor are given. A general theory for numerical electromagnetic field analysis of superconductor by the finite element method is explained. The numerical results for twisted Bi-2223 multifilamentary tapes and a rectangular superconductor simulating coated conductors are presented.
