This paper describes experiments of the breakdown characteristics by temperature change of $SF_6$ gas and Imitation Air(I-Air) in model GIS(Gas Insulated Switchgear). From the results of the experiments, the breakdown characteristics classify the vapor stage of $SF_6$ according to Paschen's law, in which the stage of coexistence for gas & liquid of the voltage value increases. This results in large deviation and the breakdown of the voltage(VB) low stage as the interior of the chamber is filled with a mixture of $SF_6$ that is not liquefacted and remaining air that can not be ventilated. The ability of $SF_6$ liquid($LSF_6$) insulation is higher than high-pressurize $SF_6$ gas. The VB of the I-Air decreases as the temperature drops and the VB also drops. It is considered that the results of this paper are fundamental data for the electric insulation design of superconductor and cryogenic equipment that will be studied and developed in the future.

Toward the practical applications, on operation of conduction-cooled HTS SMES at temperatures well below 77 K should be investigated, in order to take advantage of a greater critical current density of HTS and considerably reduce the size and weight of the system. Recently, research and development concerning application of the conduction-cooled HTS SMES that is easily movement are actively progressing in Korea. Electrical insulation under cryogenic temperature is a key and an important element in the application of this apparatus. Using multi wrapped copper by Polyimide film for HTS SMES, the breakdown characteristics of models for turn-to-turn, that is surface contact model, were investigated under ac and impulse voltage at 77 K. A material that is Polyimide film (Kapton) 0.025 mm thickness is used for multi wrapping of the electrode. Statistical analysis of the results using Weibull distribution to examine the wrapping number effects on breakdown voltage under at and impulse voltage in $LN_2$ was carried.

In this paper the experiments of breakdown characteristics by temperature change of $SF_6$ gas($GSF_6$), and $SF_6$ liquid ($LSF_6$) in model GIS (Gas Insulated Switchgear) are described. From the experiment's results, the breakdown characteristics classify the vapor stage of $SF_6$ according to Paschen's law, in which the gas & liquid coexisted stage of voltage value increases, resulting in much deviation and the breakdown of voltage ($V_B$) low stage as the interior of the chamber gets filled with a mixture of $SF_6$ that is not liquefacted and remaining air that cannot be ventilated. The ability of $LSF_6$ insulation is higher than the high-pressurized $SF_6$ gas. The breakdown characteristics of $LSF_6$ were produced by bubble formed evaporation of $LSF_6$ and bubbles caused by high electric emission. It is considered in this paper that the results are fundamental data for electric insulation design of superconductor and cryogenic equipments machinery that will be studied and developed in the future.

Polyurethane foam is the most efficient, high-performance insulation material, used for liquefied natural gas carrier (LNGC) insulation. Because LNGC is exposed to sloshing impact load due to ship motion of 6 degrees of freedom, polyurethane foam should be sufficient dynamic properties. The dynamic properties of these polyurethane foam depends on temperature and density. Therefore, this study investigates the dynamic response of polyurethane foam for various temperature($25^{\circ}C$, $-70^{\circ}C$, $-163^{\circ}C$) and density($90kg/m^3$, $113kg/m^3$, $134kg/m^3$, $150kg/m^3$) under drop impact test with impact energy of 20J, 50J, and 80J. For dynamic response was evaluated in terms of peak force, peak displacement, absorb energy, and the mechanical property with minimized density effects. The results show the effect of temperature and density on the polyurethane foam material for the dynamic response.

In order to accelerate hydrogen society in current big renewable energy trend, it is very important that hydrogen can be transported and stored as a fuel in efficient and economical fashion. In this perspective, liquid hydrogen can be considered as one of the most prospective storage methods that can bring early arrival of the hydrogen society by its high gravimetric energy density. In this study, a small-scale hydrogen liquefier has been designed and developed to demonstrate direct hydrogen liquefaction technology. Gifford-McMahon (GM) cryocooler was employed to cool warm hydrogen gas to normal boiling point of hydrogen at 20K. Various cryogenic insulation technologies such as double walled vacuum vessels and multi-layer insulation were used to minimize heat leak from ambient. A liquid nitrogen assisted precooler, two ortho-para hydrogen catalytic converters, and highly efficient heat pipe were adapted to achieve the target liquefaction rate of 1L/hr. The liquefier has successfully demonstrated more than 1L/hr of hydrogen liquefaction. The system also has demonstrated its versatile usage as a very efficient 150L liquid hydrogen storage tank.

고본 연구는 모의 GIS내 절연특성을 $SF_6$ Gas의 온도의 변화($+30{\sim}-40[^{\circ}C]$)에 따른 절연특성을 구명하였다. 절연 특성은 기체상태의 Paschen's law 적용구간, 기체와 액체 공존상태의 절연파괴전압이 대세적으로 높고, 편차가 심한 구간과 챔버 내부가 저밀도 $SF_6$와 잔류공기의 혼합체로 이루어지는 극히 낮은 압력상태로 되어 절여파괴 전압이 크게 낮아지는 구간으로 구분되었다. 또한 본 실험에서 액체 $SF_6$가 기체 $SF_6$보다 절연특성이 우수함을 확인하였다. 상전이와 절연특성을 구명함으로서 각종 고온초전도 및 극저온 응용 설비의 절연설계의 기초 자료로 제공하고자 한다.

LNG 천연가스로서 저장과 운반이 용이한 액체로 변형이 가능하며, 청정연료로 각광받게 되어, 석유에너지의 의존도를 낮추고 에너지사용의 다변화를 위해 1986년 인도네시아로부터 처음 도입된 이래로 산업의 성장과 더불어 그 수요량이 지속적으로 증가하고 있다. LNG는 천연가스의 부피를 영하 약 $-162^{\circ}C(-260^{\circ}F)$까지 냉각시켜 1/600까지 줄일 수 있으므로, 저장 및 운반에 있어서 매우 효율적이다. 현대의 LNG 저장탱크는 철근 콘크리트 이중벽과 내부 니켈방호벽 및 벽사이의 효율이 높은 단열재로 구성된 완전 방호식이 적용되고 있다. 단열재는 극저온의 온도가 LNG 탱크 외벽으로 전달되는 것을 차단하며, 바닥슬래브, 외벽 및 상부에 설치된다. LNG 저장탱크의 단열재의 배치에 따라 콘크리트 외조에 작용하는 온도분포에 차이가 나므로, 본 연구에서는 기 건설된 완전 방호식 LNG 저장탱크 바닥판 단열재의 배치에 대해 검토하고, 이를 바탕으로 단열시스템 개선 방안을 제안하고자 한다.

본 연구에서는 영하 $163^{\circ}C$의 극저온 환경에서 저장되는 액화천연가스 운반선 방열시스템에 적용되는 폴리우레탄 폼 단열재의 기계적 강도를 향상시키기 위한 연구의 일환으로 폴리우레탄 폼 합성 시 산화그래핀을 첨가한 산화그래핀-폴리우레탄폼을 개발하였다. 우선 Hummers 방법을 이용하여 산화그래핀을 합성하였으며, 폴리올과 이소시아네이트의 중합반응 시 산화그래핀의 중량비를 다르게 첨가하여 산화그래핀-폴리우레탄 폼 벌크를 제작하였다. 미세구조 분석을 통해 산화그래핀의 양에 의존한 산화그래핀-폴리우레탄 폼의 셀 안정성에 대해 분석 하였으며, 이와 동시에 산화그래핀이 폴리우레탄 폼 셀에 미치는 영향에 대해 분석하고자 하였다. 또한, 기계적 강도를 계측하기 위해 극저온용 챔버를 탑재한 만능재료시험기의 온도를 제어하여 상온 및 영하 $163^{\circ}C$의 극저온 환경에서 압축시험을 수행하여 기계적 거동 및 파손 특성에 대해 규명하였다. 시험 결과 산화그래핀의 양이 증가 할수록 기계적 강도는 향상되지만, 일정량 이상이 되면 셀형성을 방해하여 셀 구조의 안정성이 저하되고 기계적 강도 또한 저하되는 현상을 관찰하였다.

LNG CCS which is a special type of cargo hold operated at -163℃ for transporting liquefied LNG is composed of a primary barrier, plywood, insulation panel, secondary barrier, and mastic. Currently, glass fiber is used to reinforce polyurethane foam. In this paper, we evaluated the possibility of replacing glass fiber-reinforced polyurethane foam with basalt fiber-reinforced polyurethane foam. We conducted a thermal conductivity test to confirm thermal performance at room temperature. To evaluate the mechanical properties between basalt and glass-fiber-reinforced polyurethane foam which is fiber content of 5 wt% and 10 wt%, tensile and an impact test was performed repeatedly. All of the tests were performed at room temperature and cryogenic temperature(-163℃) in consideration of the temperature gradient in the LNG CCS. As a result of the thermal conductivity test, the insulating performance of glass fiber reinforced polyurethane foam and basalt fiber reinforced polyurethane foam presented similar results. The tensile test results represent that the strength of basalt fiber-reinforced polyurethane foam is superior to glass fiber at room temperature, and there is a clear difference. However, the strength is similar to each other at cryogenic temperatures. In the impact test, the strength of PUR-B5 is the highest, but in common, the strength decreases as the weight ratio of the two fibers increases. In conclusion, basalt fiber-reinforced polyurethane foam has sufficient potential to replace glass fiber-reinforced polyurethane foam.

In the design of superconducting power equipments such as transformer, cable and fault current limit, knowledge of the dielectric behavior of both liquid and gaseous at very low temperatures is very importance. Especially, Electrical properties of liquid nitrogen($LN_{2}$) and gaseous nitrogen($GN_{2}$) have become of great interest again since the discovery of high temperature superconductors. However, many sources of $LN_{2}$and $GN_{2}$ problems in the test of pancake coil model arising form the deficiency of insulation data. Therefore, this paper describes the results of an experimental study on the ac breakdown voltage($V_{B}$) properties of $LN_2$ and Air under the electrode of simulated HTS pancake coil. The ac breakdown voltage of $GN_{2}$ have been measured by pancake coil-pancake coil gaps over the temperature range of 293 K to 77 K.
