The conceptual design of integrated three phase superconducting fault current limiter (SFCL) is presented. And through simulation of power system where this SFCL is installed, the characteristics of this SFCL is analyzed. It is like three-phase transformer. So it has the same characteristics with inductive single phase SFCL. But it has more merits than single phase SFCL. Differently to single phase SFCL, integrated three phase SFCL induces impedance at all phase by any single phase fault to protect the power system more safely.

Superconducting transmission cable is one of interesting part in power application using high temperature superconducting wire as transformer. One important parameter in HTS cable design is transport current distribution because it is related with current transmission capacity and loss. In this paper, we calculate inductance and current distribution for 4-layer cable using the electric circuit model and compare calculation results of transport current losses by monoblock model and Norris equation

Design & operation of power system for meeting increase of electric power demands is becoming more difficult and complex. One of reasons is increase of fault current. As one of the most effective methods for suppressing the fault currents, installation of SFCL are expected. An image of future hybrid & total SC power system which have introduced SC generator cable transformer, fault current limiter, SMES & shunt reactor, etc. are presented. In the SC power system, it is pointed that a SFCL should play an, important part of quenching current level coordination to prevent the other SC devices from quench.

This paper describes protection system of new distribution power system with superconducting power devices such as HTS cable, HTS transformer, HTS-FCL. First of all, this paper investigates protection systems of Korean power system and then do a basic study on relaying systems in the power system with HTS power devices. For the more detailed results, we did the study using EMTDC relaying system modeling from the viewpoint of superconducting power devices application. Then we proposed some solution for a high resistance fault problem.

We investigated the operating characteristics of a flux-lock type superconducting fault current limiters according to the number of the serial connection each the superconducting element at the additive polarity winding of a transformer. This SFCL consists of two coils wound in parallel on the same iron core, and the secondary coil is connected to the elements in series. Operating characteristics can be controlled by adjusting the inductances and the winding directions of the coils. It turns ratio between the primary and the secondary coils is 63:21. The analysis of voltage, current, and resistance in serial connection each element was performed to increase the applied voltage of flux-lock type SFCL. When the applied voltage was 200/$\sqrt{3}[V_{rms}]$ with three elements connected in seres, the peak value of the line current increased up to 26,24[A]. On the other hands, resistive SFCL increased up to 36.35[A], under the same conditions. This enabled the flux-lock type SFCL to be easy to increase the capacity of power system.

This Paper deals with the short circuit tests of the three-Phase DC reactor type fault current limiter (FCL) in changing of turns ratio of transformers. The experiment of this paper is a preliminary step to develop the FCL's faculties for an application to high voltage transmission line. So, superconducting coil was made of Nb-Ti, low temperature superconductor, and the ratings of the power system of experimental circuit are 400V/7A class. A three-phase DC reactor type FCL consists of three transformers, six diodes, one superconducting coil and one cryostat. The important point of experimental analysis is transient period, the operating lagging time of circuit breaker. As the results of the experiment, the values are referred to the limitation rate about 77% and 90% when the turns ratio of transformer was 1:1 and 2:1 respectively.

This paper deals with charging and persistent-current mode operating characteristics of BSCCO magnet load using high-temperature superconducting (HTS) power supply. The HTS power supply consists of two heater-triggered switches, an iron-core transformer with the primary copper winding and the secondary BSCCO solenoid, and a BSCCO magnet load. The magnet load was fabricated by double pancake winding and its inductance is about 21 mH. A hall sensor was installed at the middle of the magnet load to measure the current in the load. In order to investigate the efficient pumping characteristics, operating tests of heater-triggered switch with respect to dc heater current were carried out, and the electromagnet current was determined by considering saturation characteristics of its iron core. The saturation characteristics of charged current in the magnet load were observed with respect to various pumping periods: 12 s, 14 s, 24 s and 32 s. After charging the magnet load, the persistent current was measured. The operating characteristics of the persistent current mode were mainly determined by joint resistance and magnet load.

In this paper, the effect of SFCL which was applied on neutral line of main transformer in distribution substation was analyzed in addition to the position of SFCL among some cases which are studied. The result about the limiting current was compared with the effect with SFCL applied on feeder. The limiting current characteristics are similar to the effect of SFCL on feeder. Therefore, this application of SFCL is required to protection coordination such as SFCL is applied on feeder.

A 1 MV A single phase high temperature superconducting (HTS) transformer was manufactured. In order to reduce AC loss generated in the HTS winding, winding was concentrically arranged. Operation temperature is set at 65K to increase the critical current and reduce the amount of HTS tape usage and the volume. The cryogenic system which consists of main cryostat with the windings and secondary cryostat with 2 GM coolers and cryopump on top and heat exchanger inside is also designed and the cooling performance is simulated with Fluent. Temperature distribution of the windings is investigated whether the windings are kept under designed operation temperature.

According to the increase of electric consumption nowadays, power system becomes complicated. Due to this, the size of single line-to-ground fault from power system also increases to have many problems. In order to resolve these problems effectively, an Superconducting Fault Current Limiter(SFCL) was proposed and continuous study has been done. In this paper, an SFCL was combined to the neutral line of a transformer. An superconductivity has the characteristics of zero resistance below critical temperature. because of this, SFCL has nearly zero resistance. so we connecting SFCL to neutral line will not only have any loss in the normal operation but also have the less burden of electric power because of only limiting the initial fault current. We analyzed the characteristics of current, voltage according to the changes of turn ratio of 3 phase system in case of combinations of an SFCL to the neutral line. It was confirmed that the limiting rate of initial fault current by the increase of turn ratio was reduced.
