Stability of a Bi-2223/Ag tape was studied by using a numerical model considering the temperature distribution of cross-sectional area. The dynamic evolution of normal zone of a HTS tape can be shown by the developed two-dimensional Program using finite difference method. Two kinds of analyses are compared to quantify the critical disturbance energy for quenching HTS tapes. One is the length-thickness(x-r) side and the other is the length-width(x-z) side. For each case. the governing energy balance equations and corresponding boundary conditions are formulated. The results of analyses shows that the critical disturbance energies for each cases seem to be very close for considered Bi-2223/Ag tape .

Current lead plays the part of connector between ambient temperature and liquid helium superconducting magnet. Having zero resistance characteristic, it is expected that HTS has very low thermal conductivity and generate no joule heat when fabricated to current lead. In particular, among the HTS meterials, HTS tape has high Jc and Ag-sheath of tape plays the part of stabilizer, but it has too poor mechanical strength to be applied and when fabricated as long length tape, it has tendency to decline Jc seriously. In this study, we fabricated Bi-2223 multifilamentary tapes and then made current lead with stacking type using them. Through this work, we conclude that the defect of HTS long length tape is decreased by addition the number of stacking tape and that current lead is able to operate more stably by minimizing the gap of tapes.

Bi-2223 tape is one of the most widely used HTS tapes for power application. This paper presents the basic properties such as temperature and resistivity rise of the Bi-2223 tape which is exposed to the over current. Temperature and resistivity were measured by E-type thermocouple and voltage taps. Results of the measurement showed that rise of voltage depended on the magnitude of the over current until several times of the rated current. When the current largely exceeded the rated current, rise of voltage depended on the magnitude of the resistivity of the Ag matrix because temperature of the matrix increased to a great extend.

The prototype high-T$_c$ superconducting (HTS) power transmission cables have been designed and fabricated multi layers of spirally wound HTS tapes. The cables were made Bi-2223 based Ag-sheathed HTS tapes, and tested in LN$_2$. Critical currents of 700A dc and better were achieved. The magnetic flux density and field direction were analyzed in the cable configuration. In this paper the results of analysis and tests of HTS power transmission cables were described.

1.5 kA class HTS current leads for a SMES magnet, which are connected to a conventional vapor cooled copper leads, were designed. The HTS leads are composed of Bi-2223/Ag-Au tapes and a stainless stell tube. The estimated critical current of the lead is about 1.6 kA at 77.3 K and in a self magnetic field, and the heat input to the liquid helium from the cold end of the 35 cm lead is 0.4 W/lead. It has been made clear that the heat input decreases with increase of the lead length and decrease of the warm end temperature and Ag-Au/SC ratio.

This paper presents racetrack High Temperature Superconducting (HTS) magnet with iron plates to achieve the maximum current-carrying capacity and the simple shape that can easily be wound and jointed. On the basis of the magnetic field analysis using Biot-Savart's law and 3 Dimensional Finite Element Analysis (3D FEA), this study is focused on the function of iron plates, which is to obtain smaller B${\perp}$, and stress and strain condition of Ag-sheathed Bi-2223 37-filament HTS tapes are considered. Moreover, the measured performance of the magnet with iron plates improved by 50% on the basis of initial magnet.

We are developing portable type HTS magnet system cooled by solid nitrogen. This system have recooling and recharging capabilities. In this paper, we report preliminary test results obtained from the experimental solid nitrogen system and pancake magnet would with Bi-2223/Ag tapes, respectively. The operation period was sensitively dependent on the vacuum rate n the cryostat, size of SUS tube for flowing N_{2}$, and liquid nitrogen to cool the cryostat. The fabricated coil I_{c}$was 75 A at 20 K in self field.

The fabrication and characteristics of HTS race-track type field coil for generators was carried out. Field coils are composed of 3 pancake coils wound by 37-filamental Bi-2223/Ag-alloy tapes. The winding machine is horizontal type. The critical currents (I$_c$) of the superconducting tapes were measured with variation of bending strain and external magnetic fields. I$_c$ of both whole field coils and 3 pancake coils were measured as a function of temperature. At 77K under the self-field, I$_c$ of whole field coils was 12A, while in the case of middle pancake coil, I$_c$ was 15A. The distribution of magnetic field B was obtained, using 3-D FEM. Our simulation showed that maximums of B${\bot}$A in x-y plane were locally distributed in both the upper and the lower coils. In addition, the fabrication processes and the characteristics of field coil are described.
