Commercial eddy current dynamometers control the torque of ratating body (poer supply machine) with the field coil current being operated as a braking force. In this paper, we studied about the relation between the field coil current and the torque load of eddy current dynamometer. By the torque measuring analysis of eddy current dynamometer, it is linear relation between the brake force measured from the torque meter (e.g. load cell, strain gage or spring balance etc.) which is installed at the case of dynamometer and the multiply of shaft rpm by the square of field coil current (N$\times$Ia2). To prove the relation, it was experimented and showed that the torque operated by the rotating body can be measured with the shaft rpm and the field coil current of eddy current dynamometer. This result shows a possibility that eddy current dynamometer can measures the torque of rotating body without special torque measuring devices.

The distance optimizing between coil and magnetic materials never be specified in the magnetic materials acceleration using the coil till now. We can know to be the distance which optimizes when being in the half position about the distance of intercoil by the result of the max point on the Differential calculus. Whether several top and bottom current segment coil structures were made and the steel ball in which the current segment coil structure is the magnetic materials could be accelerated in the optimizing distance or not confirmed. When the coil valley current about the mass of the steel ball was known as the experiment and it was but to be the nose consequently it applied to the magnetic materials and magnetic fluid, the optimal distance was solved between the coil and material.

This paper introduces reliability improvement and time saving in eddy current inspection by signal characteristic optimization of multi-coil eddy current array probe. In the past, Multi-coil array probe and single probe were used for the gas turbine rotor surface inspection & defect evaluation. The multi-coil array probe was used for the broad area inspection. But the signal deviations among multi-coil array probe are maximum 28% in commercial probe. This differences were considered to impedance differences among coils, so it is very difficult to evaluate exact defect size. The signal deviations among multi-coil array probe are maximum 28% in commercial probe. So, single coil inspection was used for exact defect sizing. The purpose of this study is to improve signal deviations of multi-coil array probe. The introduced new technology can improves this deviation by adjusting input voltage in each coil. At first, apply same voltage in each coil and collect signal amplitude of each coil. And calculate new input voltage based on signal amplitude of each coil. If the signal amplitude deviation is within 5% among multi-coil array probe, the signal amplitude of multi-coil array probe is reliable. The proposed technology gives 2% signal deviation among multi-coil array probe. The proposed new technology gives reliability improvement and inspection time saving in eddy current inspection.

Rogowski coil is made having no ferromagnetic material in a core. So the coil cannot be driven into saturation. This result in that Rogowski coils may be calibrated at relatively low currents. and used with confidence at very high currents. However the lowest level of current that can be measured is limited by the sensitivity of the voltage measuring instrument and system noise. Therefore. geometrical effects were investigated in order to measure high sensitivity of low level current and the significant source of error was examined as well. In the results, the source of error was associated with coil designs. i.e. shape and uniformity of coil and a geometrical location of current source inside and outside of the Rogowski coil.

Eddy current testing (ECT) is an important nondestructive testing technology for the inspection of flaws in conductive materials. However, this widely used technology is not suitable for inspecting lamination when a conventional pancake coil is used because the eddy current (EC) generated by the pancake coil is parallel to the lamination and will not be perturbed. A new method using a rectangular coil placed vertical to the work piece is proposed for lamination detection. The vertical sections of the rectangular coil induce ECs that are vertical to the lamination and can be perturbed by the lamination. A parametric study of a rectangular coil by finite element analysis was performed in order to examine the capability of generating vertical EC.

We investigated fault current limitation characteristics of the resistive superconducting fault current limiter (SFCL) which consisted of a Bi-2212 bulk coil and a shunt coil. The Bi-2212 bulk coil and the shunt coil were connected in parallel. The Bi-2212 bulk coil was placed inside the shunt coil to induce field-assisted quench. The fault test was conducted at an input voltage of $200V_{rms}$ and fault current of $12kA_{rms}\;and\;25kA_{rms}$. The fault conditions were asymmetric and symmetric, and the fault period was 5 cycles. The test results show that the SFCL successfully limited the fault current of $12kA_{rms}\;and\;25kA_{rms}$ to below $5.5{\sim}6.9kA_{peak}\;within\;0.64{\sim}2.17$ msec after the fault occurred. Limitation was faster under symmetric fault test condition due to the larger change rate of current. We concluded that the speed of fault current limitation was determined by the speed of current rise rather than the amplitude of a short circuit current. These results show that the Bi-2212 bulk coil is suitable for distribution-class SFCLS.

In this paper, the development and the test of 13.2kV/630A high-Tc superconducting fault current limiting coil are described. The fault current limiting coil made of Coated Conductor (CC) was fabricated with bifilar winding method for non-inductive characteristics and tested in the distribution power system level in Dec. 2006. In order to determine the length of the superconducting coil, applied voltage per unit length(V/m) was studied analytically and it was verified through experiments. For the volume minimization, the coil was designed with concentrical arrangement method. The short-circuit test was performed with the prospective fault current of asymmetrical 10kA whose maximum fault current was $30kA_{peak}$. In the test, the voltage drop and the current of the coil were measured and the resistance of the coil was obtained. Also, the temperature rise of the coil was calculated with the relationship between the resistance and the temperature of CC. In this paper, the experimental results are analyzed and compared with the simulation.

This paper presents the operation principle and design rule of the Rogowski coil which can measure the transient current and describes the calibration and application experimental results for performance evaluation. It is obtained that the response curves of the Robowski coil with the turns of 300 and the passive integrator to sinusoidal input give a good linearity up to the frequency of 500 [kHz] and the current measurement system gaving the Rogowski coil is the frequency bandwidth of 40 [Hz]~700 [kHz]. As an application experiment for the fabricated modeling power transmission line, the impulse current, which limitates the direct lightning return stroke to overhead ground wire, is measured by the Rogowski coil and its fast Fourier transformation is carried out. The equivalent circuit of the Rogowski coil considering the stray capacitances is proposed, and the theoretical analysis is in good agreement with the measurement results. Also, it is found that for high frequency domain the stray capacitance such as a distributed capacitance to the shield and the capacitance between windings of coil should be considered in designing the Rogowski coils since the resonance originates from the stray capacitance and the self-inductance of the Rogowski coil.
