A high temperature superconducting power cable (HTS power cable) was applied large current capacity by no resistance in normal state. Fault state was risen out of over-current but, it was limited to resistance. this study was modeling equivalence, and unbalanced state analyzed operating charateristics of HTS power cable. The equivalence model was composed superconductor, shield, and former part. This model simulation was appeared conductor and shield current in normal state, but fault state was appeared former current as rise current by resistance. so it need to sufficiently influenced the quench characteristic when the former design.

In this work, we investigated quench characteristics of matrix-type superconducting fault current limiters (MFCLs) according to the turn number of reactors. The reactors used in MFCLs apply magnetic field to superconducting elements within reactors when fault currents surge into MFCL systems. It makes the fast and simultaneous quenches between superconducting elements. Also reactors decrease the fault power burden of superconducting elements by bypassing the partial fault currents to itself, when quench occurs. These structure proposed in this work can be expected to achieve much more current limiting capacity even though it uses less superconductors compared with other type SFCLs. Three reactors were made by Bakelite. These reactors with the turn number of 190, 380 and 570, had the length of 270 mm and diameter of 80 mm. We reported experimental results, including fault currents, fault voltages and resistance in superconducting elements according to the turn number of reactors. We confirmed that experimental results will be useful in next future plan for the real power grid.

Electrical breakdown characteristics of liquid nitrogen(LNd used as both coolant and insulator for high $T_c$ superconductor system is very important. This paper presents dynamic breakdown characteristics of liquid nitrogen by quench penomena of thermal bubble under high electric field. As the result, the breakdown mechanism of $LN_2$ depends on thermal bubble effect. The breakdown voltage decreases slightly with increasing heating. In the Electrode arrangement, electrical breakdown voltage of horizontal arrangement appears lower than that of vertical arrangement.

Using Small Angle Light Scattering (SALS), the effect of quench depth on the kinetics of phase separation for ternary solution blends was investigated. The system was composed of two polymers (polystyrene and polybutadiene) and a solvent (toluene). The analyses of the early stage of phase separation were based of the Cahn-Hilliard theory [1,5]. Apparent diffusion coefficients and the fastest mode of fluctuations were evaluated, when quench depth of the system were varied near the critical composition of polymer. In the late stage of phase separation, the domain growth showed a power law with the 1/3 exponent, i.e. $q_m(t)~t^{-1/3}$. For comparison between real images and scattering profiles with time, the image of phase domains with time were obtained by using Laser Confocal Scanning Microscopy (LSCM).

We present the basic properties of a superconducting current limiting fuse (SCLF) based on YBCO/Au films. The SCLFs consists of YBCO stripes covered with Au layers for current shunt. Under the source voltage of 100 $V_{rms}$, the longer the duration time of fault current was, the shorter its discharge time was. The duration time of fault current and its discharge time were reduced by increased voltages in the range of 200 - 300 $V_{rms}$. We thought that this was because the quench propagation was limited by local melting generated with higher voltage.

최근 KEPRI-LSIS가 공동 개발한 하이브리드형 초전도 한류기 동작 시, 사고 검출을 담당하는 초전도체의 최적 설계에 적용하기 위하여 Au/YBCO 박막의 ��치 회복 특성을 조사하였다. $600\;V_{rms}$, 3 ms의 사고가 초전도 박막에 인가되었을 때, ��치가 종료된 이후 초전도성을 회복하기 위해 142 ms의 시간이 소요되었다. 또한 인가 시간이 증가함에 따라 소요 시간도 비례하여 증가하여 4 ms 동안 인가되었을 때, ��치 회복 시간은 272 ms로 측정되었다.

We improved quench properties of a superconducting fault current limiter(SFCL) components based on YBCO thin films. This consists of three components with nearly identical properties and one with slightly difference properties. The units were connected in series and first of parallel to increase the current and voltage ratings. It have caused significantly imbalanced power distribution. The imbalance remarkably improved by connecting a shunt reactor to the SFCL component in parallel.

In order to study the basic I-V behavior and quench characteristics, we fabricated two kinds of small superconducting coils which were wound with different superconductors. In this study, it was made clear that the propagation. velocity of normal zone preferentially depends on the operation current rather than heat pulse energy and also increases exponentially with respect to operation current.

The binding properties of three ginsenosides, Rb$_{1}$, Rc and Re, to bovine and human serum albumins have been examined by fluorescence probe technique. 1-anilinonphathalene-8-sulfonate (ANS) was used as the fluorescence probe. Protopanaxatriol glycoside, Re, did not quench the fluorscence of ANS to the bovine serum albumin. Competitive bindings between protopanaxadiol glycosides, Rb$_{1}$ and Rc are both 3.3 . The binding constants for Rb$_{1}$ and Rc with bovine serum albumin were 1.91 * 10$_{4}$M$_{-1}$ AND 1.04 * 10$^{[-994]}$ M$^{-1}$ , respectively. The ginsenosides, Rb$_{1}$, Rc and Re did not quench the fluorescence of ANS bound to human serum albumin.

This paper presents an analytic method to calculate energy conversion between electromagnetically coupled high-temperature superconducting and copper coils. The energy transfer from one coil to the other is commonly observed during quench of a no-insulation (NI) high temperature superconductor (HTS) magnet. Proper understanding of this phenomenon is particularly important to protect an NI HTS magnet, especially to avoid any potential mechanical damages. In this paper, analytic equations are obtained to estimate the energy transfer between the NI and copper coils. The well-known lumped-parameter circuit model is adopted provided that key parameters of the coils are given.
