The inductance difference between conducting layers of high-Tc superconducting (HTSC) power transmission cable causes the current sharing of each conducting layer to be unequal, which decreases the current transmission capacity of HTSC power cable. Therefore, the design for even current sharing in HTSC power transmission cable is required. In this paper, we investigated the current distribution of HTSC power cable with a shield layer dependent on the pitch length and the winding direction of each layer. To analyze the effect of the shield layer on the current sharing of the conducting layers of HTSC power cable, the current distribution of HTSC power cable without a shield layer was compared with the case of HTSC power cable with a shield layer. It could be found through the analysis from the computer simulations that the shield layer of HTSC power cable could be contributed to the improvement of current distribution of conducting layers at the specific pitch length and the winding direction of conducting layer. The result and discussion for the current distribution calculated for HTSC power transmission cable with a shield layer were presented and compared with the cable without a shield layer.

고온 초전도 전력케이블의 통전용량 산정은 먼저 고온 초전도 전력케이블의 임계전류를 먼저 알아야 한다. 선재의 임계전류를 알고자 하는 경우, 전압-전류를 측정하거나 온도를 측정하는 방법을 통해 임계전류를 알아내지만, 고온 초전도 전력케이블의 경우 이러한 방법으로 임계전류를 알아내는 것이 불가능하다. 본 논문에서는 고온 초전도 케이블에 사용되는 선재에 대한 임계전류를 측정하고, 전자장 해석을 한 후, 실험결과와 해석 결과를 토대로 고온 초전도 전력케이블의 임계전류를 계산하였다. 이렇게 계산된 임계전류를 이용하여 고온 초전도 전력케이블의 통전용량의 기초자료로 활용토록 하였다.
