In this paper, the design of a IMVA single-phase high temperature superconducting(HTS) power transformer with BSCCO-2223 HTS tapes is presented. The rated voltages of each sides of the transformer are 22.9 ㎸ and 6.6 ㎸, respectively The winding of 1MVA HTS transformer is consisted of double pancake type HTS windings, which have advantages of insulation and distribution of high voltage, and are cooled by subcooled liquid nitrogen of 65K. Four HTS tapes were wound in parallel for the windings of low voltage side and the four parallel conductors are transposed. The design of 1MVA HTS transformer, a shell type core made of laminated silicon steel plate is chosen, and the core is separated with the windings by a cryostat with a room temperature bore. The cryostat made of non-magnetic and non-conducting material and a liquid nitrogen sub-cooling system is designed in order to maintain the coolant's temperature of 65K. For electromagnetic analysis of 1MVA HTS transformer, a finite element method of an axis of symmetry is used. The maximum perpendicular component of magnetic flux density of pancake windings is about 0.15T. And through analyzing the magnetic field distribution, an optimal winding arrangement of 1MVA HTS transformer is obtained.

This paper presented the charcteristic of the thermal transfer in a 50[kVA] cast-resin dry type transformer. The conductivity of the primary winding composed were a Plenty of epoxy-resin ard a little of Cu was determined by that rating. Otherwise the conductivity of the secondary winding composed of a plenty of Cu and a little of epoxy-resin was determined by comparing the data of analysis using FEM method with those of temperature tests of the prototype cast-resin transformer. Based on the reults of the physical characteristics and the simulation by commercial using FEM method we established the prototype Model for this test. According to that Model, an analysis on variation of the temperature was discussed as a function of ambient temperature and velocities in the 50[kVA] cast-resin dry type transformer.

Conventional electric motors are not suitable for aircraft because of their large size and weight. High-temperature superconducting (HTS) motors have high current density, high magnetic field density, and low loss, so they can significantly reduce the size and weight compared to general electric motors. This paper presents the conceptual design and analysis results of HTS motors for electric propulsion in future aircraft. A 2.5 MW HTS motor with a rotational speed of 7,200 RPM was designed and the specific power (kW/kg) was analyzed. The operating temperature of the field coil of the HTS motor is 20K in consideration of LH2 cooling. The stator winding were connected in a multi-phase configuration and Litz wires were used to minimize eddy current losses. As a result, it was confirmed that the specific power of the motor is about 18.67 kW/kg, which is much higher than that of the conventional electric motor.

Test temperature is an important factor affecting the measurement results of dielectric response of field power transformers. In order to better apply the polarization and depolarization current (PDC) to the condition monitoring of oil-paper insulation system in power transformers, the influences and elimination method of test temperature on PDC characteristic spectroscopy (PDC-CS) were investigated. Firstly, the experimental winding sample was measured by PDC method at different test temperatures, then the PDC-CS was obtained from the measurement results and its changing rules were discussed, which show that the PDC-CS appears a horizontal mobility with the rise of temperature. Based on the rules, the “time temperature shift technique” was introduced to eliminate the influence of test temperature. It is shown that the PDC-CS at different test temperatures can be converted to the same reference temperature coincident with each other.

Liquid-immersed pole transformers have utilized an insulation system consisting of natural cellulose-based materials and mineral oil for many years. If the transformers are installed with the abruptly changing load over limitation, its insulation materials are apt to unexpected aging with high temperature. Therefore we have been conscious of developing a transformer that is more thermally stable then conventional types. To measure temperature distribution in the winding of conventional and newly designed transformers, temperature sensors were installed fordirect reading of oil and conductor temperatures at transformers. And we conducted accelerating aging test for these transformers. The measuring data had made use of the design to hybrid insulation system. Also we could find the possibility of this insulation system to apply in pole mounted transformers.

The thermal stability conditions are investigated for superconducting magnet systems cooled conductively by cryocooler without liquid cryogens. The worst scenario in the systems is that the heat generation in the resistive state exceeds the refrigeration. causing a rise in the temperature of the magnet winding and leading to the burnout. It is shown by an analytical solution that in the continuous resistive state, the temperature may increase indefinitely or a stable steady-state may be reached, depending upon the relative size of the magnet with respect to the refrigeration capacity of the cryocooler. The stability criteria include the temperature-dependent Properties of the magnet materials and the refrigeration characteristics of the cryocooler. A useful graphical scheme is Presented and discussed to demonstrate the physical importance of the results.

AC and DC insulation breakdown voltage was studied for magnet wire coated with double layers of high flexural PAI layer and high anti-corona PAI/nanosilica (15 wt%) layer. The specimens were prepared at various drying temperatures (T/D): $22^{\circ}C$, $240^{\circ}C$, and $260^{\circ}C$, respectively. The increase effects of nanosilica on AC and DC insulation breakdown voltage were not so significant compared to that of magnet wire coil coated with original PAI. And the AC and DC insulation breakdown voltage was improved by decreasing diameter of winding coil. As T/D temperature increased, AC and DC insulation breakdown voltage decreased.

The insulating oils perform a cooling and insulation action in electric power transformer. The mineral oil has immanent fire dangerousness and environmental contamination problem. Vegetable insulating oil has higher ignition point, flash point and more excellent biodegradability than conventional mineral oil. In a real oil-filled transformers, some of the power is dissipated in the form of heat. And transformer require the heat to be removed from the winding and insulator by forced convection of the insulating oil. The flow electrification occurs when insulating oil was forced to be circulated. In this paper, influence of temperature, velocity of flow, and insulating pipe and diameter on streaming electrification of vegetable insulating oil was investigated using forced circulation apparatus. Temperature effects were most significant, and it showed a peak in the temperature $30^{\circ}C$ to $35^{\circ}C$ at insulating and copper pipe. The change of flow electrification according to area variety could be checked by change of diameter.

Degradation characteristics of filament-winded composites due to accelerated environmental aging have been evaluated under high temperature, water immersion and thermal impact conditions. Two kinds of laminated composites coated by an urethane resin have been used: carbon-fiber reinforced epoxy(T700/Epon-826, CFRP) and glass-fiber reinforced phenolic (E-glass/phenolic, GFRP). For tensile strength of $0^{\circ}$ composites, CFRP did high reduction by 25% under the influence of high temperature and water while CFRP showed little degradation. However for water-immersed $90^{\circ}$ composites both CFRP and GFRP showed high reduction in tensile strength. Bending strength and modulus of $90^{\circ}$ composites were largely reduced in water-immersion as well as high temperature environment. Urethane coating on the composite surface improved the bending properties by 20%, however hardly showed such improvement for water-immersed $90^{\circ}$ composites.
