A 1 MVA single-phase high temperature superconducting (HTS) transformer with BSCCO-2223 wire was designed in this paper. The rated voltages of each sides of the transformer are 22.9 kV and 6.6 kV respectively. Double pancake HTS windings arranged reciprocally will be used for the transformer windings, because of the advantages of insulation and distribution of surge voltage in case of a large power and high voltage transformer. Single HTS wire was used for the primary windings and four parallel wires were used for the secondary windings of the transformer with transposition. A core of the transformer was designed as a shell type core separated with the windings by a cryostat made of GFRP with a room temperature bore. The operating temperature of the HTS windings will be about 65K with sub-cooled liquid nitrogen. A cryogenic cooling system using a GM-cryocooler for this HTS transformer by natural convection of liquid nitrogen was designed. This type of cooling system can be a good option for compactness, efficiency, and reliability of the HTS transformer.

In superconducting magnetic energy storage (SMES) systems, the current leads are usually divided into two parts. Normal metals like brass or copper are often used in the first part from the room temperature to the 1st stage of the cryocooler. Their dimensions were decided to minimize the conduction heat penetration and Ohm's heat generation. The second part down to the cryogenic coil is made of high temperature superconductor (HTS). HTS current leads can reduce the conductive heat penetration because they have poor thermal conductivity and generate no Ohm's heat generation. The brass current lead and the HTS current lead were designed and fabricated for application to the 10kJ class SMES system. The HTS current lead is 300A class. The HTS current lead was stacked with 2 HTS layers using the $Bi_2Sr_2Ca_2Cu_3O_x$ (BSCCO)/Ag. In this paper, we introduce the design procedure of the current leads and discuss the test results of the current leads.

In this paper, 3-D nonlinear electromagnetic analysis of a single phase 1MVA 22.9 kV/6.6 kV high temperature superconducting(HTS) transformer with double pancake windings was accomplished. The characteristics of 1MVA HTS transformer such as The efficiency, voltage regulation and % impedance voltage drop were obtained by the 3-D non-linear electromagnetic analysis. And in order to verify the 3-D non-linear electromagnetic analysis of a single phase 1MVA HTS transformer, a 1MVA test transformer with windings made of copper tapes with the same size as BSCCO-2223 HTS tape was manufactured. The energy conservation method to perform the analysis of leakage impedances of both a 1MVA HTS transformer and test transformer was used. The characteristic analysis such as efficiency, voltage regulation and % impedance voltage drop of transformer was performed. And the obtained values of both 1MVA HTS transformer and test transformer were compared.
