Recently, the resistive Fault Current Limiter (SFCL) made with Coated Conductor (CC) has been researched with an advanced capability in CC. Current limiting elements must be connected in series in order to fabricate the resistive SFCL having large capacity. By the way, unless the applied voltage in the SFCL is distributed to the elements when the fault occurred, those elements will be critically damaged. Thus simultaneous quench of the elements is an important factor to design the resistive SFCL. In this paper, simultaneous quench characteristics of current limiting module by using BSCCO 2223 were researched before manufacturing the resistive SFCL by using CC. At the first fault stage, the elements generated the resistance at the same time. However, the unequal voltage is applied to the each element in process of time. The method is suggested to solve the problem of the unequal distribution. These experimental results will play an important part in developing for the resistive SFCL by using CC.

We investigated the characteristics of flux-lock type superconducting fault current limiter (SFCL) by the fault cycles. Since the recovery characteristics of a superconducting element in the flux-lock type SFCL were dependent on the winding' direction between two coils, the analysis for the recovery characteristics of this type SFCL together with the current limiting characteristic is necessary to apply it to power system. As the fault cycles was increased from 1 cycle to 5 cycles, the initial limiting current ($I_{ini}$) and quench characteristic were mostly same. As the fault period increases, the recovery time of the superconducting element increases. The consumed energy and recovery characteristics in a superconducting element show the same tendency.

Cable-In-Conduit Conductor(CICC) is widely accepted as an advanced superconductor configuration for large scale applications such as tokamak fusion reactors, MAGLEV (MAGnetic LEVitation), and SMES (Superconducting Magnetic Energy Storage). The stability of CICC cooled with supercritical helium can be very high if it is operated below a certain limiting current. This limiting current can be determined by Stekly type heat balance equation. The stability characteristic of CICC for AC operation is more complicated than that of DC because there are additional instability sources which are associated with local flux change. Ramp-rate limitation is a phenomenon discovered during US-DPC (United States-Demonstration Poloidal Coil) program, which showed apparent quench current degradation associated with high dB/dt. This paper describes recent experimental investigation results on the ramp-rate limitation and discusses current imbalance, induced current, current redistribution due to local quench of the strand in the cable.

For the development of a small-sized superconducting magnetic energy storage (SMES) system we designed, fabricated and tested the model coil consisting five coils with different features, e.g. winding tensions, bore diameters and materials, cooling channels. The results show that even in the highly pre-stressed small coil A, about 70 % of the coils critical current are degraded. The quench current of the coils A, B and E with narrow cooling channels is two times as high as that of the coil C without them though they are similar except spacers. The test results also indicate that the usual training effect depends on the winding tensions of the coils but the quench characteristic does not change according to materials of a bobbin.

For quite a long time various researches and developments of superconducting magnetic energy storage(SMES) device have been done for enhancement of power qualify control of sensitive electric load. This paper describes the design. fabrication and experimental results for the 3MJ SMES magnet made by using the design code of a SMES device that we developed. A computer code was developed to find the parameters of the SMES magnet which has minimum amount of superconductor for the same stored energy, and the 3MJ SMES magnet was designed based upon that. And the 3MJ SMES magnet designed based upon those. In addition, 3MJ SMES magnet was made based on several research results which were ramp up to 1㎄ without quench.

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.

77 K와 self-field에서 22 A 의 Ic 를 갖는 길이 120 m, 19-심 Bi-2223상 선재를 제조하여, 두 개의 double pancake 코일로 구성된 proto-type 고온초전도 자석을 설계, 제작하여 이 자석에서의 4.2 K와 77 K에서의 I-V 특성과 운전 특성을 평가한 결과, 이 자석은 77 K 등온조건에서는 9.5 A 의 Ic를, 77 K 헬륨가스 속에서는 8.3 A 의 Ic를 나타내었고, 4.2 K 등온조건에서는 93.7 A 의 Ic와 102 A 의 Iq를, 4.2K헬륨가스 속에서는 88.4A의 Ic 와 92.0 A 의 Iq를 나타내어, 이 자석은 4.2 K 와 77 K 의 등온조건에서 각각 0.58 T 와 0.06 T 의 자장을 발생하였는데, 이는 해석적 방법으로 계산한 결과와 잘 일치하였다. 그리고 이 자석이 전도냉각되어 4.2 K 에서 운전될 때의 안정성 특성평가로서, Ic 보다 약간 큰 전류인 89 A 를 인가한 결과, 전류인가 후 82.6초 후에 quench가 발생하였는데, 이 quench는 네 번째 pancake의 전류도입선부 연결부에서와 약간 늦지만 첫 번째 pancake의 전류도입선부 연결부에서 거의 동시에 개시되어 전체로 파급된 것으로 사료되었는데, Ic 가 낮은 첫번째 pancake에서 더 높은 전압 강하가 나타났다. 또한 장착된 heater를 통하여 77 K 에서 8.9 A 의 전류로 운전되고 있는 코일에 146 joule 의 열을 가했을 때 quench 가 일어났는데, 이때 quench 는 방위각 방향의 Bi-2223/Ag 선재를 따라서 보다 Kapton 절연층을 관통하는 선재의 반경방향으로 훨씬 빨리 전파하였다.

Inductive superconducting fault current limiter(SFCL) with DC reator rated on 6.6k $V_{rms}$/200 $A_{rms}$ has been developed in Yonsei University. The development of the DC reactor is the key technology in this type SFCL. This paper deals with the fabrication and characteristic test of the DC reactor. For the development of this magnet, the winding machine for high-Tc superconducting solenoid was manufactured. Using this machine, a large-scale HTS solenoid using Bi-2223 tape was fabricated successfully. This coil has 5 layers which are connected in series each other. The inductance of the DC reactor coil is 84mB. The cooling system was the sub-cooled nitrogen whose temperature is about 65K. The characteristic test of the coil was performed. The full quench current of this coil is about 490A.90A.
