  • Matrix-star, Pancake, and RFM graphs have such a good property of Star graph and a lower network cost than Hypercube. Matrix-star graph has Star graph as a basic module and the node symmetry, the maximum fault tolerance, and the hierarchical decomposition property. Also it is an interconnection network that improves the network cost against Star graph. In this paper, we propose a method to embed among Matrix-star Pancake, and RFM graphs using the edge definition of graphs. We prove that Matrix-star $MS_{2,n}$ can be embedded into Pancake $P_{2n}$ with dilation 4, expansion 1, and $RFM_{n}$ graphs can be embedded into Pancake $P_{n}$ with dilation 2. Also, we show that Matrix-star $MS_{2,n}$ can be embedded into the $RFM_{2n}$ with average dilation 3.

  • Zr-Nb alloy have been widely used as fuel rods in nuclear power plants. However, from the Fukushima nuclear accident, the weakness of the rod was revealed under harsh conditions, and research on the safety of these types of rods was conducted after the disaster. The method of depositing chromium onto the existing Zr-Nb alloy fuel rods is being considered as a means by which to compensate for the weakness of Zr-Nb alloy rods because chromium is strong against oxidation at high temperatures and has high strength. In order to secure these advantages, it is important to maintain the Cr thickness of the rods and properly inspect the rods before and during their use in power generation. Eddy current testing is a typical means of evaluating the thickness of thin metals and detecting surface defects. Depending on the size and shape of the inspected object, various eddy current sensors can be applied. In particular, because pancake sensors can be manufactured in very small sizes, they can be used for inspections even in narrow spaces, such as a nuclear fuel assembly. In this study, an eddy current technique was developed to confirm the feasibility of Cr coating thickness evaluations. After determining the design parameters of the pancake sensor by means of a FEM simulation, a FPCB pancake sensor was manufactured and the optimal frequency was selected by measuring minute changes in the Cr-coating thickness using the developed sensor.

  • 초전도 응용 기기의 실용화를 위해서는 극저온 냉매의 절연기술이 확립되어야 한다. 특히, 취급이 용이하고 경제성이 높은 액체 질소를 냉매로 사용하는 고온 초전도 응용 기기 개발이 활발히 이루어지고 있어 여러 고온초전도 응용 기기 중 고온 초전도 변압기의 pancake-coil 형 권선에서의 spacer에 대한 절연 특성을 연구하였다. 이때 spacer는 pancake-coil의 턴간 절연내력을 유지하여야 하며, 또한 냉매 유동 통로를 확보하여야 한다. 하지만 실용상에 있어서는 절연물의 계면을 따라서 진전하는 연면 방전에 의한 절연내력이 관통절연 파괴전압에 비해 낮아 절연 설계 시 유의해야 한다. 따라서 pancake-coil형 고온초전도 변압기 권선을 위한 spacer에 대한 연면 방전 특성을 연구하였다.

  • A Bi-2223 tape has been developed for low-field Power applications such as Power cables or transformers working at liquid nitrogen temperature For such applications it is required to understand fault current characteristics of the Bi-2223 tape. In this paper we report fault current characteristics using two types of samples, straight sample and pancake coil sample. It was found that the fault current characteristics of the Bi-2223 tape are independent of external fields and frequencies . However they depend on electrical insulations and fault durations strong1y Also it was shown that the fault current characteristics in the insulated straight sample are similar to those in the pancake sample with a conductor insulation. Finally. it was shown that the Pancake sample with a layer insulation has better characteristics than that with a conductor insulation fur fault currents.

  • Considering the application of high temperature superconductor to MRI, the loss at conductor joint would be very important. Therefore, we have carried out a measurement of joint resistance of Bi-2223/Ag tapes at 77 K. A pancake coil was wound by Bi-2223/Ag tape. Both ends the tape were overlapped and soldered to each other. The DC current is induced in the pancake coil by energizing the excitation coil wound by copper wire closely located to the pancake coil. The decay behaviour of the current in coils was clearly separated in two regimes, and initial fast decay of the order of minutes followed by a slow logarithmic-like decay, From this data, the resistance of the joint was evaluated as 2.74 n$\Omega$.

  • 1MVA high temperature superconducting (HTS) transformer with double pancake windings made of BSCCO-2223 HTS tapes was designed and manufactured. And prototype transformer with the same capacity was manufactured also. The each rated voltage of the HTS transformer is 22.9 kV and 6.6 kV. Four parallel BSCCO-2223 HTS tapes were wound in the double pancake windings of low voltage side. In order to distribute the currents equally in each HTS tapes, the three times transposition was performed between the double pancake windings. The windings of prototype transformer were wound using copper tape with the same size as BSCCO-2223 HTS tape. The core of the transformer was designed and manufactured as a shell type core made of laminated silicon steel plate. The several characteristics tests for the prototype transformer were performed in liquid nitrogen and insulation tests were accomplished also.

  • The properties of High Temperature Superconducting (HTS) tapes are progressing, as HTS tapes evolve from 1st generation to 2nd generation. This paper presents design and construction of a 2nd generation HTS magnet consisting of two nested GdBCO and YBCO pancake coils. Two HTS tapes of different widths were used to wind the HTS nested magnet. Considering that a higher magnetic field is applied to the inner magnet than to the outer magnet, 12 mm GdBCO tape was used for winding the inner magnet, which consisted of four single pancake windings. Eight double pancake windings wound with 4.4 mm YBCO tapes were used for the outer magnet. The test results show that the central magnetic field of the HTS nested magnet was 920 mT. The measured critical currents of the inner and outer magnet at 77K were 80.8 A and 32.6 A, respectively.

  • In this paper, the eddy current signals come from a pair oi transmit-receive (T/R) pancake coil on ECT array Probe are analyzed with the variations of the lift-of and of the distance between transmit and receive coils. To obtain the electromagnetic characteristics of the probes, the governing equation describing the eddy current problems is derived from Maxwell's equation and is solved using three-dimensional finite element method. Eddy current signals from T/R coils on ECT array probe have quite different characteristics compared with ones from impedance coil on rotating pancake coil probe. The results in this paper ran be helpful when the field eddy current signals from ECT array probe are evaluated.
