  • When HTS tapes are used in power application, they are used by winding form, such as, a pancake and a solenoid. When AC current is applied to the coil, Ac magnetic field is generated in winding. This AC magnetic field acts as an external magnetic field and makes loss. In this paper the radial magnetic field component ($B_r$) and the axial magnetic field component ($B_z$) in a pancake and a solenoid were calculated by numerical analysis method and compare with measured value. AC losses of a short sample were calculated by Norris equation and n numerical analysis based on Brandt equation. AC losses of the pancake coil and the solenoid coil were also calculated.

  • 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.

  • Long length of Bi-2223 superconducting wires were fabricated by stacking, drawing process with different precursor owders and different heat-treatment histories. The precursor powders were 2 kinds of Pb content. And a part of the tapes were experienced pre-annealing process which caused tetragonal structure of Bi-2212 phase to orthorhombic structure of it was during drawing process. We confirmed the transformation of Bi-2212 phase from tetragonal structure to orthorhombic structure and reduction of second phases. We designed and made a continuous Ic measurement system for Bi-2223/Ag HTS tape. We could achieve best Ic of 65 A at the Bi-2223/Ag tape using low Pb content of precursor powder and experienced pre-annealing process.

  • Inside the existing superconducting cables, the superconducting wire carries a loss-free current, and the cable former (the stranded copper wire) bypasses the fault current to prevent damage and loss of the superconducting cable when the fault current is applied. The fault-current-limiting-type superconducting cable proposed in this paper usually carries a steady current; but in a fault state, the cable generates self-resistance that makes the fault current lower than a certain width. That is, the superconducting cable that transmitted only a low voltage and a large capacity power repetitively limits the fault current, as does a superconducting current limiter. To complete this structure, it is essential to investigate the mutual resistance relationship between the superconducting wires after applying a fault current. Therefore, in this paper, one kinds of superconducting wires (a wire without a stabilization layer) were connected parallel 4 tapes, respectively; and after applying a fault current, the current, voltage, resistance and thermal stability of the HTS thin-film wires were examined.

  • The turn-to-turn contact resistance of 2G high temperature superconducting (HTS) coils with metal insulation (MI) is closely related to the stability of the coils, current charging rate and delay time [1]. MI coils were fabricated using five kinds of metal tapes such as aluminum (Al) tape, brass tape, stainless steel (SS) tape, copper (Cu)-plated tape and one-sided Cu-plated SS tape. The turn-to-turn contact surface resistances of co-winding model coils using Al tape, brass tape, and SS tape were 342.6, 343.6 and $724.8{\mu}{\Omega}{\cdot}cm^2$, respectively. The turn-to-turn contact resistance of the model coil using the one-sided Cu-plated SS tape was $ 248.8{\mu}{\Omega}{\cdot}cm^2$, which was lower than that of Al and brass tape. Al or brass tape can be used to reduce contact resistance and improve the stability of the coil. Considering strength, SS tape is recommended. For strength and low contact resistance, SS tape with copper plating on one side can be used.

  • The pulsed field magnetization of the short-circuited soldered double pancake coil made of stabilized commercial high-Tc superconductor (HTS) tape is experimentally studied. The evolution of the shielding current induced by the pulsed field and the trapped field after the pulsed magnetization was measured at 77 K. It is shown that the trapped field in the coil is close to the value reached in the field cooling process and reduces weakly at 5-fold increasing of pulsed field amplitude. The current relaxation at t~2 ms after the pulse is defined by the current sharing between the tape's copper coating and the $YBa_2Cu_3O_{7-d}$ layer. In the intermediate time scale (1 s < t < 100 s) the flux creep in HTS layer dominates. At t > 100 s the current's relaxation is defined by the resistance of soldered joint between tapes.
