The YBCO coated conductor is an important element that forms the superconducting power equipment. The first advantage of applying YBCO coated conductor to superconducting power equipment is that it can effectively addresses the normal and fault currents using less quantity of wire than when using Bi tape due to its high critical current density. Second, it can limit the fault current fast because its index value is high. so that the resistance can be produced fast when it is applied to the superconducting current limiting element. Third, the type of stabilization layer that surrounds the YBCO superconductor is selectable and the magnitude of the resistance that is produced from quenching can be adjusted. This study researched into the manufacture of current-limiting element of using YBCO coated conductor, into the characteristics of current limiter that considered by combining the manufactured element with the resistive-type superconducting fault current limiter.

Since a stabilizer of YBCO coated conductor (CC) plays a very important role of bypassing over-current and transferring heat generated in the moment of fault, it is one of big issues to determine the material of the stabilizer and its dimension for the high performance of the HTS power application system. Especially, in the case of a superconducting fault current limiter (SFCL), which requires it to react immediately to the occurrence of fault, characteristics of stabilizer are decisive in limiting fault current and recovering superconducting properties during and after quenching. In this paper, the quench / recovery characteristics of YBCO CCs with various thickness of stabilizer were analyzed. The quench/recovery test carried out at 20 $V_{rms}$, 5 cycles (60 Hz) and results showed that as the thickness of the stabilizer decreased, both the final approach temperature and the recovery time decreased.

We investigated current limiting properties for an SFCL of YBCO thin film coated with an Au layer. The YBCO film of 1 mm wide and 400 nm thick could carry the current 9.6 A$_{peak}$ without quench. The SFCL limited the fault current below 7.6 A$_{peak}$, which otherwise increases above 65 A$_{peak}$ and melted down at the potential fault current of about 100 A$_{peak}$ which is 10 times greater than the quench current. This means that the Au layer successfully protected the superconducting film by dispersing the heat generated at hot spots and electrically shunting the YBCO film.

With the rapid industrialization and economical development, the electricity demands of the industrial facilities and densely populated large cities are continuing to increase in Korea. The increase in the power consumption requires the extension of power facilities, but it is difficult to secure spaces for equipment installation in the limited space of urban areas. In addition, the 154 kV or 345 kV transmission systems in Korea has a short transmission distance, and are connected to one another in network structures that ensure the high reliability and stability of power supply. This structure reduces the impedance during the fault in power system, and increases the magnitude of in the short circuit fault current. The superconducting fault current limiter (SFCL) was devised to effectively address these existing problems. The SFCL is a new-concept eco-friendly protective device that ensures fast operation and recovery time for the fault current and does not need additional fault detection devices. Therefore, many studies are being conducted around the world. In this paper, based on the wiring method the initial fault current characteristics, current limiting characteristics, according to the incident angle and the change in inductance current limiting characteristics were analyzed in a multifaceted methods.

본 논문에서는 국내계통 발전단지에 초전도한류기를 적용하였을 때 과도안정도 향상효과를 검토하는 연구이다. 일반적으로 초전도한류기는 사고시 고장전류를 감소시키는 역할을 하지만, 발전단지 근처에 초전도한류기를 적용하였을 경우 사고시 안정도 측면에서도 효과적일 것으로 예상된다.

In the faults of power line, single line ground and line-to-line fault make power system to unbalanced. These fault currents make unbalanced power system. This paper suggests the simulation results of dynamic characteristic of HTS cable system under unbalanced faults condition using EMTDC, Quench phenomenon and current limiting effects are observed. However, quench on the HTS is destroy cable system, coordination with SFCL has to be considered.

본 논문에서는 트리거와 리미팅 요소를 갖는 초전도 한류기의 전류제한 특성을 분석하였다. 일반적으로 저항형 초전도한류기는 트리거동작과 리미팅동작이 초전도한류기 자체에서 모두 이루어지게 된다. 초전도 한류기의 구성요소를 트리거동작과 리미팅동작을 수행하는 요소로 분리시켜 보다 효율적으로 고장전류를 감지하고 제한할 수 있음을 등가회로와 모의실험을 통해 확인하였다.
