For the design to prevent the saturation of the iron core and the effective fault current limitation, the analysis for the operation of the flux-lock type superconducting fault current limiter (SFCL) with consideration for the hysteresis characteristics of the iron core is required. In this paper, the hysteresis characteristics of the flux-lock reactor, which is an essential component of the flux-lock type SFCL, were investigated. Under normal condition, the hysteresis loss of the iron core in the flux-lock type SFCL does not happen due to its winding structure. From the equivalent circuit for the flux-lock type SFCL and the fault current limiting experiments, the hysteresis curves could be drawn. From the analysis for both the hysteresis curves and the fault current limiting characteristics due to the number of turns for the 1st and 2nd windings, the increase of the number of turns in the 2nd winding of the flux-lock type SFCL had a role to prevent the iron core from saturation.

The increase of fault current due to larger power demand has caused the capacity of power machines in grid to increase. To protect the power system effectively from the increased fault current, the superconducting fault current limiter (SFCL) have proposed one of several countermeasures. Therefore, to introduce SFCL into power distribution system, the position of SFCL in power distribution system is selected among some cases. Each position changes fault current limiting characteristics and SFCL's requirement. In this paper, the characteristics of limiting fault current according to installed SFCL's location in power distribution system.

Superconducting fault current limiters (SFCL) have been progressing due to the development of superconducting technology. The resistor type SFCL is one of the promising current limiting devices in power system for its effective operation. For proper application and operation of a SFCL, the prior investigation of fundamental characteristics and its effects to the distribution systems are needed. The most important current limiting behavior of a SFCL is dominated by quenching and recovery characteristics. In this paper, the resistive type SFCL was developed by using EMTP/ATPDraw and MODELS language. The operating characteristics and current limiting behaviors of the SFCL in distribution systems have been simulated and investigated.

이온교환막 공정의 중요한 운전인자인 전류밀도와 전해질의 pH가 막 오염에 미치는 영향을 연구하였다. 휴믹산 100 mg/L를 포함하고 있는 NaCl 용액에서 Neosepta AMX (Tokuyama Soda, Japan) 음이온교환막의 막 오염 현상을 관찰하였다. 한계전류밀도(LCD) 전 후 영역의 전류를 공급하면서 이온교환막의 전기저항 변화를 측정하여 막 오염 현상을 분석하였다. 실험결과 LCD 이하에서는 전류밀도의 변화가 막 오염에 큰 영향을 미치지 않았다. 그러나 LCD 이상의 전류밀도에서는 막 오염이 심각하게 진행되는 것으로 나타났다. 실험 후 휴믹산에 오염된 막에 대한 전류전압 곡선에서도 LCD 이상에서 실험한 경우에 막 오염으로 전기저항이 증가하고 LCD가 감소한 것을 알 수 있었다. 또한 휴믹산이 포함된 전해질 용액의 pH를 산성 조건으로 조정한 후 실험한 결과 pH가 감소할수록 막 오염이 증가하는 것으로 나타났다. 이 결과로부터 막 오염이 휴믹산의 표면 전하에 의한 것보다 물리화학적 성질에 더 큰 영향을 받는다는 것을 알 수 있었다.

In this paper, we investigated the fault current limiting characteristics according to the increase of voltage in the separates three-phase flux-lock type high-Tc superconducting fault current limiter using YBCO CC. The separated three-phase flux-lock type SFCL consists of single-phase flux-phase type SFCL in each phase. Superconductor was using the YBCO CC. To analyze the current limiting characteristics of a three-phase flux-lock type SFCL, the short circuit experiments were carded out fault such as the triple line-to-ground fault. The experimental result shows that fault current limiting characteristics was improved on the high voltage level.

We investigated the quench characteristics in accordance with increase of turns number of trigger coil and shunt resistance of matrix-type superconducting fault current limiter (SFCL) with $2{\times}3$ array. The matrix-type SFCL consists of the trigger part to apply magnetic field and the current-limiting part to limit fault current. The fault current limiting characteristics according to the increase of magnetic field and applied voltage were nearly same. This is because the application of magnetic field hasn't an affect on total impedance of the SFCL. When turns number of a reactor increased, the voltage difference between two superconducting units in the current-limiting part according was decreased. The resistance difference generated in two superconducting units was also decreased. Therefore, we confirmed that the differences of the critical behaviors between superconducting units were reduced by application of magnetic field. By this results, we could decide the optimum turns number of reactor to apply magnetic field.

We investigated the quench characteristics accordance with increase of turns and applied voltage of matrix-type superconducting fault current limiter (SFCL) with $1{\times}3$ matrixes. The matrix-type SFCL consists of the trigger part to apply magnetic field and the current-limiting part to limit fault current. The fault current limiting characteristics according to the increase of magnetic field and applied voltage were nearly same. This is because the application of magnetic field has not an affect on total impedance of SFCL.

The resistance difference generated in two superconducting units also was decreased. Therefore, we confirmed that the differences of critical behaviors between superconducting units by application of magnetic field were decreased.

The matrix-type superconducting fault current limiter (MSFCL) consists of the trigger and current-limiting parts. The trigger part with reactors connected in parallel improves the quenching characteristics by applying the external magnetic field into the superconducting units. The current-limiting part with superconducting units connected in parallel and shunt reactors connected in series limit the fault current when the fault occurs. We developed the integrated reactor with the trigger and the current-limiting parts to apply high external magnetic field into the superconducting units. This was composed of a superconducting unit for the trigger part and two superconducting units for the current-limiting parts. We confirmed that the external magnetic field generated in the MSFCL with an integrated reactor was larger than that of the MSFCL with the separated reactors. So the differences of voltages generated between superconducting units were decreased in the difference according to the increment of the applied voltage. The whole magnitude of the SFCL was reduced because the volume of an integrated reactor could be reduced by one-third than that of the separated reactors. We confirmed that the critical behavior between the superconducting units in the MSFCL with an integrated reactor was more improved than that of the MSFCL with the separated reactors.

A serious problem in using YBCO films for fault current limiter is inhomogeneities caused by imperpect manufacturing. So simultaneous quenches are a difficult problem which elements for current limiting are connected in series for increasing voltage ratings. We investigated extended electric field - current characteristics for current limiting element of YBCO film when 0-130mT magnetic field is applied. And quench characteristics were investigated in over all element and between elements of YBCO films. From the experiments, it was shown that applied magnetic fields using solenoid coil induced uniform quench distribution for over all stripes and simultaneous quench in all elements for current limiting of YBCO film was realized.
