This paper describes a busbar current differential relay in conjunction with a current transformer(CT) compensating algorithm irrespective of the level of the remanent flux. The compensating algorithm detects the start of first saturation if the third-difference function of the current exceeds the threshold; it estimates the core flux at the first saturation start by inserting the negative value of the third-difference function of the current into the magnetization curve; thereafter, it calculates the core flux during the fault and compensates the distorted current using the magnetization curve. The algorithm estimates the correct secondary current irrespective of the level of the remanent flux and needs no saturation point of the magnetization curve. The proposed relay can improve not only security of the relay on an external fault with CT saturation but sensitivity of the relay on an internal fault; the relay can improve the operating speed on n internal fault with CT saturation. This paper concludes by implementing the relay into a digital signal processor based prototype relay.

This paper describes a current differential relaying algorithm for a three-phase transformer considering the nonlinear magnetization characteristics of the core. The iron-loss current is obtained from the calculated induced voltage and the core-loss resistance. The magnetizing current is calculated from the estimated core flux and the magnetization curve. The proposed algorithm uses the modified differential current, which is obtained by subtracting the iron-loss current and the magnetizing current from the conventional differential current. The various test results show that the algorithm can discriminate internal fault from magnetic inrush, overexcitation and an external fault.

For the application of HTS wire to AC power equipment, a conductor with high current capacity and low loss is required. CORC^®, one of the high-current conductors manufactured using several HTS wires, is made by winding the wires in a spiral on a cylindrical former. Because the magnetization loss of a CORC^® conductor depends on the degree of magnetic coupling between the wires constituting the CORC^®, it is necessary to know the value of the magnetization loss of the CORC^® itself. In order to obtain an accurate loss value, it is necessary to know the effect of the ratio of the winding pitch of the CORC^® conductor in the pickup coil region sampling the magnetization loss signal. To confirm this effect, we prepare CORC^® samples having various winding pitches, and measure and compare the magnetization losses. In addition, the magnetization loss was measured while rotating the CORC^® samples and it was examined whether there was a difference in the magnetization loss according to the rotation.

In this paper, the magnetization characteristics and the stored energy of magnetically coupled superconducting fault current limiter (SFCL)s using single and double high-Tc superconducting (HTSC) elements were compared. To analyze the magnetization characteristics and the stored energy, the magnetizing current and the flux linkage, which were derived from the electrical equivalent circuit of the SFCL using single and double HTSC elements, were calculated from the voltages and the current measured in the short-circuit tests. Through the comparative analysis on the magnetization characteristics and the stored energy for SFCL using sing and double HTSC elements, the magnetically coupled SFCL using double HTSC elements was shown to be more effective than the SFCL using single HTSC element from the point of view of the magnetic saturation.

Transport current and magnetic field which is generated by transport current make AC current - AC mag-netic field condition(AC-AC condition) in AC power application system using HTS tape. Therefore, characteristics of AC loss under the AC-AC condition are necessary to estimate AC loss of power device with accuracy such as HTS transformer. In this paper, we researched transport current loss, magnetization loss by perpendicular magnetic field and total loss which is represented as summation of both losses under the AC-AC condition in single HTS tape. As a result, magnetization loss showed increasing behavior under 65mT and decreasing behavior upper 65mT by influence of transport current. Transport current loss was increased continuously through out whole measurement ranges in the AC-AC condition. Total loss in HTS tape was dominated entirely by magnetization loss.

In this paper, we compared the characteristic of fault current liminting in the magnetic shielding type High-Tc superconducting fault current limiter(FCL) using both Piecewise linear magnetization curve and real magnetization one of iron core. From this paper, the characteristics of fault current limiting in both cases showed many differences. The latter has higher fault current than the former, because the saturation of iron core was reflected and more accumulated during fault. It is expected that the more exact characteristic of magnetic shielding type High-Tc superconducting FCL was obtained in the case of design and modeling.

Induction machine requires a rotating magnetic field for energy conversion. The current to generate a rotating magnetic field is the magnetization current. This magnetization current corresponds to the reactive power. Reactive power is higher than active power at start-up of induction motor. As the rotation speed is increased, their magnitudes are reversed each other. The active power is higher than the reactive power at near the synchronous speed. This paper is dealing with the analysis result for the changes of the magnetizing current and reactive power when the induction machine is operating as a motor or generator near synchronous speed.

This paper examines permanent magnet eddy current couplings and brakes. Specifically, the effect of permanent magnet magnetization patterns on the magnetic field and force production is investigated. The eddy current couplings and brakes employ high energy-product neodymium-iron-boron (NdFeB) permanent magnets that act on iron-backed copper drums to provide torque transfer from motor to load without mechanical contact. A 2-dimensional finite element modeling is performed to predict the electromagnetic behavior and the torque-speed characteristics of permanent magnet type eddy current couplings and brakes under constant speed operation.

$100 A/mm^2$ class Bi-2223 tapes have recently become commercially available. Some important characteristics of the tapes, e .g. critical current, ac loss, characteristics at joint, fault current characteristics, are required for an application such as a power cable or a power transformer. In this paper they have been investigated experimentally. The results indicate that the self-field loss of the high current density tapes is not negligible, compared to resistive loss in a copper wire for the same currents. In a cable, the self-field loss for relatively large currents is much larger than the magnetization loss due to an external field. But in a transformer, the magnetization loss is dominant, compared to the self-field loss. Finally the fault current characteristics show that the high current density tapes are never safe from burn-out even for fault currents with a few cycles.
