AC loss which is generated in an HTS wire varies with the direction of the external magnetic field. This paper calculates the AC loss in an HTS tape, where effects of the perpendicular direction of the magnetic field are considered. Brandt equation is used to calculate the loss by perpendicular magnetic field. In the calculation, current densities are varied along the variation of the magnitude of the external magnetic field. Results of calculation are compared with those of the conventional method.

This paper presents the analysis and experiment results on the electrical and thermal characteristics of metal insulation (MI) REBCO racetrack coil, which was wound with stainless steel (SS) tape between turn-to-turn layers, under rotating magnetic field and conduction cooling system. Although the field windings of superconducting rotating machine are designed to operate on a direct current, they may be subjected to external magnetic field due to the unsynchronized armature windings during electrical or mechanical load fluctuations. The field windings show the voltage and magnetic field fluctuations and the critical current reduction when they are exposed to an external magnetic field. Moreover, the cryogenic cooling conditions are also identified as the factors that affect the electrical and thermal characteristics of the HTS coil because the characteristic resistance changes according to the cryogenic cooling conditions. Therefore, it is necessary to investigate the effect of external magnetic field on the electrical and thermal characteristics of MI-SS racetrack coil for further development reliable HTS field windings of superconducting rotating machine. First, the major components of the experiment test (i.e., HTS racetrack coil construction, armature winding of 75 kW class induction motor, and conduction cooling system) were fabricated and assembled. Then, the MI racetrack coil was performed under liquid nitrogen bath and conduction cooling conditions to estimate the key parameters (i.e., critical current, time constant, and characteristic resistance) for the test coil in the steady state operation. Further, the test coil was charged to the target value under conduction cooling of 35 K then exposed to the rotating magnetic field, which was generated by three phrase armature windings of 75 kW class induction motor, to investigate the electrical and thermal characteristics during the transient state.

The relationship between electrical properties of superconductor and externally allied magnetic field was studied to develop a magnetic field polarity sensor. The behavior was related to the magnetic flux trapped in the superconductor, which penetrates through the material by the external magnetic field. Electrical characteristics of the superconductor with trapped magnetic flux were extremely sensitive ta the external magnetic field and showed different responses depending on the direction of the magnetic field. Considering the observed properties of the superconductor with trapped magnetic flux, a magnetic sensor was fabricated to detect simultaneously both the intensity and the direction of the magnetic field.

The axial distributions of plasma density in a helical resonator plasma with the external magnetic field have been measured using Langmuir probes. Net RF power is set to 200W and chamber pressure is varied from 0.4 mTorr to 100mTorr there are three kinds of eternal magnetic field structure applied on the helical resonator plasma. One is a uniform magnetic field, the second is a positive gradient magnetic field and the third is a negative gradient magnetic field. In the three magnetic field structures, the negative gradient magnetic field is found to show the highest increase in plasma density on the substrate compared with other magnetic structures. Plasma density profile in helical resonator is well consistent with electromagnetic field pattern obtained by computer simulation. It is also found that axial magnetic fields do not affect plasma density distribution in the plasma reactor region, but induce the increase of plasma density in the process chamber region. In order to avoid the nonuniformity of radial density profile, weak magnetic fields under 100G are applied.

We have fabricated superconductor ceramics by chemical process. A high Tc superconductor with a nominal composition of $Bi_2Sr_2Ca_2Cu_3O_y$ was prepared by the organic metal salts method. Experimental results suggest that the intermediate phase formed before the formation of the superconductor phase may be the most important factor. The relation between electromagnetic properties of Bi HTS and external applied magnetic field was studied. The electrical resistance of the superconductor was increased by the application of the external magnetic field. But the increase in the electrical resistance continues even after the removal of the magnetic field. The reason is as follows; the magnetic flux due to the external magnetic field penetrates through the superconductor and the penetrated magnetic flux is trapped after the removal of the magnetic flux.

The relationship between electrical properties of superconductor and externally applied magnetic field was studied to develop a magnetic field sensor. The electrical resistance of the superconductor was increased by applying external magnetic field and even after removal of the magnetic field. This behavior was related to the magnetic flux trapped in the superconductor, which penetrated through the material by the external magnetic field. Some portion of the superconductor was changed to a normal state by the trapped magnetic flux. The appearance of the normal state yielded to enhance the electrical resistance.

HTS(High Temperature Superconductor) tapes have dependence on critical characteristics such as electric, magnetic field and temperature. In order to confirm these effects, we examined the current transport characteristics of HTS tapes. First, after being fed DC and AC, the dependence of HTS tapes of 10cm on external magnetic field was investigated. On centeral region of HTS tape, about 1cm, external magnetic field was applied. Second, after applying DC of 50A to HTS tapes, we applied time variable magnetic field about 100mT and investigated the quench characteristics. Finally, AC, which is about 10 times of I$_{c}$, was applied to HTS tapes and over current characteristics were investigated. The data acquired in this study will be used as a source for the study of HTS cable conductor which is supposed to carry on.n.

According to the improvement of the HTS wires performance, several types of HTS superconducting machines are being developed. Stacked HTS tapes are used to conduct the current of the HTS power machines. To develop the HTS power machines, the critical current characteristics of a stacked HTS tapes in external field need be examined. In this paper, we present effect of the external magnetic field on the critical current of HTS stacked tapes. The critical current of various Hinds of multi-stacked HTS tapes in external magnetic filed are compare with that of a single HTS tape. Test results show that critical current of single HTS tape is smaller than that of multi-stacked HTS tape in the external field.

Magnetization losses of HTS depend strongly on the orientation of external magnetic field because of anisotropy characteristics. For parallel and perpendicular magnetic field, analytical models to calculate the loss are well known but there is no analytical model for magetic fields which are applied to surface of HTS with arbitrary angle. In this paper, magnetization losses are measured for various incidence angles($15^{\circ}$, $35^{\circ}$, $45^{\circ}$, $60^{\circ}$) and compared with parallel and perpendicular loss. As a result, magnetization losses in HTS are strongly affected by perpenducular magnetic field component of external magnetic field.
