A novel method for measuring hydrogen concentration is introduced, along with its working principle and a novel detection algorithm. This configuration requires no additional reference compartment for potentiometric electrochemical measurements; therefore, it is the most suitable for measuring dissolved hydrogen in the liquid phase. The sensor's electromotive force saturates at a certain point, depending on the hydrogen concentration during the heating process of the sensor operation. This dynamic temperature scanning method provides higher sensitivity than the constant temperature measurement method.

In order to develop a high temperature superconducting(HTS) coil for the fault current limiter(FCL), the over-current characteristics in YBCO coated conductor(CC) with Ni-W alloy substrate are analyzed. The HTS wire is wound by bifilar winding method for resistive current limitation and it is operated in 65K sub-cooled nitrogen. In order to analyze the resistance and the temperature characteristics of the CC wire, an analysis program is developed considering all the composition materials except the buffer layer. Using this program, the temperature rise, the resistance development and the current limitation of CC are calculated depending on the applied voltage and the stabilizer materials. According to the analysis results, under the temperature restriction of 300K, the maximum voltage per meter is determined as 40V/m if the stabilizer is $25{\mu}m$ thick stainless steel at each side. Finally, the wire length needed for the distribution level HTS FCL is estimated.

The effect of substrate surface roughness and sintering temperature on the adhesion strength of Ag-based thick film conductors formed on AlN substrates with excellent thermal conductivity was studied. The adhesion strength of the thick-film conductor manufactured using an AlN substrate having a surface roughness (R_a) of 0.5 was higher than that of a thick-film conductor manufactured using a substrate having a surface roughness greater or smaller than this. In the case of a substrate with a surface roughness of less than 0.5, the contact area between the Ag thick film conductor and the substrate was relatively smaller than that of a substrate with a surface roughness of 0.5, resulting in a lower adhesive strength. On the other hand, when a substrate having a surface roughness of more than 0.5 was used, it was found that the conductor film was not completely adhered to the substrate, and as a result, it was found that the adhesive strength was small. In addition, it was found that the surface smoothness of the Ag-based thick film conductor film obtained by sintering at 850℃ was the best compared to the smoothness of the conductor film obtained by sintering at different sintering temperatures, and as a result, it was found that the adhesive strength of the conductor film was the highest.

A ring comprising a coated conductor was fabricated. A ring was made first using a biaxially textured Ni tape whose two ends were connected by means of the atomic diffusion bonding technique. Then buffer layers and a YBCO film were deposited on it. All the films were well textured as confirmed by XRD pole figures. The B-H loops, where B and H are the magnetic field at the center of the ring and the applied field respectively, were measured as a function of temperature. The persistent current density (J$_c$) flowing circularly was estimated from the remanent field of B. In the range of temperature from 72K to 20K, J$_c$ changed from zero to 2${\times}$1 0$^5$A/cm$^2$.

Because forest fire can give a serious damage to overhead conductors, the thorough understanding about aging behavior of burned conductor is very important in maintaining the transmission line safely. Therefore, a systematic investigation was carried out by heating method. As the heating temperature increases, drastic change of tensile strength of Al wire due to the softening of Al wire occurred. When Al wire is exposed to the flame(about $800\;^{\circ}C$) during only 13 seconds, the remained tensile strength of Al wire showed under 90 %. The detailed results will be given in the text.

A new process which co-fires the low-firing-substrate and copper conductor was studied to achieve good bond strength and low sheet resistance of conductor. Cupric oxide is used as the precursor of conductive material in the new method and the firing atmosphere of the new process is changed sequently in air H2N2. The addition of cupric oxide and variations of firing atmosphere permited complete binder-burnout in comparison with the conventional method and contributed to the improvement of resistance and bonding behaviors. The potimum conditions of this experiment to obtain the satisfactory resistance and bond strength are as follows (binder-burnout temperature in air; 55$0^{\circ}C$, reducing temperature in H2; 40$0^{\circ}C$ for 30 min, ratio of copper and cupric oxide; 60:40~30:70 wt%). The bonding mechanism between the substrate and metal was explained by metal diffusion layer in the interface and the bond strength mainly depended on the stress caused by the difference of shrinkage and thermal expansion coefficient between the substrate and metal.

A detailed study on aged sleeves for old transmission lines was carried out to clarify the deterioration of sleeves and the condition of installation. A lot of removed aged sleeves from transmission lines were investigated. Many biased installed cases and corrosion of steel sleeve part were found. These defects can cause a serious accident such as blackout during operating. The temperature distribution within sleeve of ACSR conductor was precisely measured and examined, conducted as part of series of studies on large currents in transmission lines. According to measurements of the conductor temperature near a joint(sleeve and clamp), the electrical resistance of joint is lower than that of the same length conductor. The detailed results were presented in the text.
