  • The application of fault current limiter(FCL) reduces power system fault current for circuit breaker to operate properly due to reduced fault current. Also FCL reduces through fault current to the power system equipments. But FCL has changed power system parameters for short time, before application the magnitude of register, triggering current and protective relay coordination have to be studied. In this paper we will examine protective relay coordination with FCL. And propose better solution to assist improving of power system operation through the application of FCL.

  • One of the most serious problems in KEPCO system operation is higher fault current than the SCC(Short Circuit Capacity) of circuit breaker. There are many alternatives to reduce the increased fault current such as isolations of bus ties, enhancement of SCC of circuit breaker, applications of HVDC-BTB(Back to Back) and FCL(fault current limiter). But, these alternatives have some drawbacks in viewpoints of system stability and cost. As the superconductivity technology has been developed, the resistance type HTS-FCL(High Temperature Superconductor Fault Current Limiter) can be one of the most attractive alternatives to solve the fault current problem. To evaluate the accurate transient performance of resistance type HTS-FCL, it is needed that the dynamic simulation model considering transient characteristics during quenching and recovery state. Under this background, this paper presents the EMTDC model for resistance type HTS-FCL considering the nonlinear characteristic of final resistance value when quenching and recovery phenomena by fault current injection and clearing occurs.

  • Nowadays, one of the serious problems in the KEPCO system is a much higher fault current than the SCC (Short Circuit Capacity) of the circuit breaker. Since superconductivity technology has become more developed, the HTS-FCL (High Temperature Superconductor-Fault Current Limiter) may become an attractive alternative to solving the fault current problem. In order to achieve the best performance, the parameters of HTS-FCL should be designed optimally. Under this setting, this paper presents the optimal design method of parameters for resistive type HTS-FCL using the Monte Carlo technique.

  • We analyzed the fault current limiting characteristics of a flux-lock type $high-T_c$ super­conducting fault current limiter (HTSC-FCL) using series resonance between capacitor for series resonance and magnetic field coil which was installed in coil 3. The capacitor for the series resonance in the flux-lock type HTSC-FCL was inserted in series with the magnetic field coil to apply enough magnetic field into HTSC element, which resulted in higher resistance of HTSC element. However, the impedance of the flux lock type HTSC-FCL has started to decrease since the current of coil 3 exceeded one of coil 2 after a fault accident. The decrease in the impedance of the FCL causes the line current to increase and, if continues, the capacitor for the series resonance to be destructed. To avoid this operation, the flux-lock type HTSC-FCL requires an additional device such as fault current interrupter or control circuit for magnetic field. From the experimental results, we investigated the parameter range where the operation as mentioned above for the designed flux-lock type HTSC-FCL using series resonance occurred.

  • To reduce the fault current below the current capacity of a circuit breaker, researches on HTS (High Temperature Superconductor) power cables with fault current limiting (FCL) function are increasing. An FCL HTS power cable transports current with low a impedance during normal operation. Yet, it limits the fault current by an increased inductive or resistive impedance of conducting layer when quench occurs at the FCL HTS power cable by the large fault current. An inductive type FCL HTS power cable uses increased inductive impendence caused by leakage magnetic flux outside the cable core when the quench occurs at a shield layer losing the magnetic shielding effect. Therefore, it has an advantage of less resistive heating than resistive type FCL HTS power cable and temperature increase is suppressed. This paper describes an ideal circuit model for the FCL HTS power cable to investigate the effectiveness of increased inductive impedance when quench occurs at the shield layer. Then, FEM analysis is presented with a simplified model cable composed of various iron yokes to investigate the effect of the shape of yoke on the generation of the inductive impedance.

  • The rate for the aquation of $trans-[Cr(tmd)_2FX]^+(X=F^-,\;Cl^-)$ ion in aqueous acidic solution has been measured by spectrophotometric method at various temperatures and pressures. The rate constants are increased with increasing temperatures and pressures. The values of activation entropy are 5.2 eu for $trans-[Cr(tmd)_2F_2]^+$ and -16.62 eu for $trans-[Cr(tmd)_2FCl]^+$ ions. Activation volumes have all negative values and lie in the limited range $-3∼-2\;cm^3mol^{-1}$ for $trans-[Cr(tmd)_2F_2]^+$ and $-8∼-7\;cm^3mol^{-1} for $trans-[Cr(tmd)_2FCl]^+$ ion. From the above results, we may deduce that the mechanism for the aquation of $trans-[Cr(tmd)_2F_2]^+$ and $trans-[Cr(tmd)_2FCl]^+$ ions is interchange-associative mechanism and dissociative mechanism respectively.

  • Glycoprotein (60 kDa) isolated from Ficus Carica Linnoeus (FCL glycoprotein) was examined by evaluating its hypolipidemic effects on plasma cholesterol levels and hepatic detoxicant enzyme activities in ICR mice. FCL glycoprotein $(100{\mu}g/mL)$ had strong scavenging activities (38%) against lipid peroxyl radicals. When mice were treated with Triton WR-1339 (400 mg/kg), levels of total cholesterol (TC) and low-density lipoprotein (LDL)-cholesterol in plasma significantly increased by 53.9 and 47.5 mg/dL, respectively, compared to the control, whereas, when pretreated with FCL glycoprotein $(100{\mu}g/mL)$, decreased remarkably by 55.4, and 47,0 mg/dL, compared to Triton WR-1339 treatment alone. Interestingly, high-density lipoprotein (HDL)-cholesterol level did not change. Body and liver weights did not change significantly after Triton WR-1339 treatment in presence of FCL glycoprotein. FCL glycoprotein $(100{\mu}g/mL)$ stimulated activities of antioxidative detoxicant enzymes such as superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), and glutathione peroxidase (GPx), whereas GPx activity significantly increased compared to the control. These results suggest FCL glycoprotein has abilities to scavenge lipid peroxyl radicals, lower plasma lipid levels, and stimulate detoxicant enzyme activity in mouse liver.

  • In this paper, we investigated the fault current limiting characteristic of flux-lock type High-Tc superconducting fault current limiter(HTSC-FCL), which is comprised of a flux-lock reactor and an external magnetic field coil covering the HTSC element In this HTSC-FCL, the initial limiting current level can be controlled by adjusting the inductance of the each coil. Furthermore, the fault current limiting characteristics of HTSC-FCL can be improved by applying 'the external magnetic field into the HTSC element We performed the computer simulation by numerical analysis about the flux-lock type HTSC-FCL and compared the results of experiment with simulation ones. We can obtain the same results from both the computer simulation and the experiment except for the time immediately after fault occurs.
