The use of high-temperature superconducting materials for transmission cable application is being realized in prototype situation. HTS cable systems have been installed in laboratories and tested successfully around the world. In korea. the first step in development of superconducting cables is distribution system. In this paper. it is proposed the HTS distribution system modeling using ATPDraw and EMTDC programs. In the multilayer conductor, the inner layers have higher impedance than the outer layers. As a result, the current concentrate$ in the outer layers. This paper presents the result of the current distribution in EMTDC.

This study is the modeling of resistive type SFCLs. There was numerical modeling and simulation using EMTP in the conventional modeling of SFCL. The numerical modeling was presented an analysis of numerical characteristic of SFCL. And the modeling using EMTP was made up of the study for setting method of specific parameters of a SFCL.

This paper described the medium voltage high temperature superconducting cable thermal simulation and its application. New simulation method for HTS cable modeling using PSCAD/EMTDC is introduced in this paper. The developed simulation method consists of electrical model part and thermal model part. In electrical model part, power loss and thermal capacitance can be calculated in each layer, then the temperature of each layer can be calculated by power loss and thermal capacitance in thermal model part. This paper also analyzes the electrical and thermal characteristic in the case of normal operating condition and transient including single line to ground fault and line to line ground fault using new simulation method.

REBCO coated conductors are widely used for HTS power application, high magnetic field magnet application, and etc. A thermal stability of the REBCO conductor is essential for the operation of HTS-based device, and thermal conductivities of the conductor are relevant parameters for modeling cryogenic heat transfer. REBCO conductors consist of a REBCO layer, copper layers for electrical stabilization and a hastelloy substrate. At cryogenic temperature, thermal conductivity of copper and silver strongly depend on the purity of the material and the intensity of the magnetic field. In this study, thermal conductivities of the laminated composite structure of REBCO conductor are evaluated by using the thermal network model and the multidimensional heat conduction analysis. As a result, the thermal network model is applicable to REBCO conductors configured in series or parallel alone and multidimensional heat conduction analysis is necessary for complex cases of series and parallel configuration.

An effective modeling and simulation scheme of a resistive type Superconducting fault Current Limiter (SFCL) using PSCAD/EMTDC is proposed in this paper. In case of High Temperature Superconducting (HTS) resistive type fault current limiter current limiting is implemented by the ultra-fast transition characteristics from the superconducting (non-resistive) state to the normal (resistive) state by overstepping the critical current density. The states can generally be divided into three sub-states: the superconducting state the quench state and the recovery state respectively. In order to provide alternative application schemes of a resistive type SFCL, an effective modeling and simulation method of the SFCL is necessary. For that purpose, in this study, an actual experiment based component model is developed and applied for the simulation of the real resistive type SFCL using PSCAD/EMTDC. The proposed simulation scheme can be implemented to the grid system readily under various system conditions including sort of faults and the system capacity as well. The simulation results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed model and simulation scheme.

This paper deals with 3 Dimensional(3D) analysis of magnetic flux density of High Temperature Superconducting(HTS) motor using 3D Equivalent Magnetic Circuit Network (EMCN). When the Finite Element Method (FEM) is applied to an analysis of 3D models, it takes much time to the pre-process work required for 3D modeling and to solve the differential equation. Compare with 3D FEM, the result of 3D EMCN by using the magnetic resistance and magnetomotive force is exact and rapid. The accuracy of 3D EMCN is verified by comparing the 3D EMCN analysis with that of 3D FEM in HTS motor.

In the favor of adjusting microwave signal, Hairpin type Filter, which delay microwave signal enough to several nanosecond, is a key component. One of the main advantage in using Hairpin type Filter is a conveniency for equipping with Delay Module, and because of having a wide bandwidth, Hairpin type Filter can be designed to satisfy the most applications. In this work, we attempted to estimate the delay time in a superconductive hairpin type filter A software to synthesize even and odd order equiripple hairpin type filter has been developed. This software arbitrarily locate its transfer zeros making symmetric of asymmetric amplitude response and equalizing group delay. Borland C++ compiler has been used. The program was designed to run under MS-DOS, Window 98, Window 2000. The program optimizes the position of the transfer function zeros in order to fulfill the group delay specification masks. We designed and fabricated a hairpin type HTS 2-pole microstrip bandpass filter to operate at 5.8Ghz. The fabrication method was pulsed laser deposition and YBCO films were deposited on sapphire substrates with a Ce$O_{2}$ thin layer as a buffer layer. We also developed a new style hairpin type filter by using interdigitide inner-pole. Compared to the same size regular hairpin type filters, our filters had a lower center frequency.

The electrical transport properties of YBCO single layers thin film have been investigated using different physical techniques. For the purpose, the physical properties are probed numerically with help of simulation modelling. The physical transport properties were also estimated with temperature and magnetic fields limits using thermally-activated flux flow model with some modifications. The result of present simulation modelling indicated that the magnitude of activation energy depends on temperature and magnetic field. The simulations revealed thickness dependent physical transport properties including electrical and magnetic properties of deposited YBCO single layers thin films. Furthermore, it shows the temperature dependence of the pinning energy. In the nutshell, the result can be used to improve the Superconducting Properties ($T_c$) of the YBCO single layers thin films.

The necessity of compact high temperature superconducting cables is more keenly felt in densely populated metropolitan areas. Because the compact high-temperature superconducting cables can be installed in ducts and tunnels, thereby reducing construction costs and making the use of underground space more effective, the effect of introducing it to the power system will be huge. Seoul, Korea, is selected as a review model for this paper. The loads are estimated by scenario based on a survey and analysis of 345kV and 154kV power supply networks in this area. Based on this, the following elements for an urban transmission system are examined. (1) A method of constructing a model system to introduce high-temperature superconducting cables to metropolitan areas is presented. (2) A case study is conducted through the analysis of power demand scenarios, and the amount of high-temperature superconducting cable to be introduced by scenario is examined. (3) The economy involved in expanding existing cables and introducing high-temperature superconducting cables(ducts or tunnels) following load increase in urban areas is examined and compared., and standards for current cable ducts are calculated. (4) The voltage level that can be accommodated by existing ducts is examined.
