Nowadays the high-Tc Superconducting Fault current Limiter (SFCL) is one of the superconducting devices which are very closed to commercialization. The most popular model of High-Tc SFCL is a magnetic shielding type. A superconductor of magnetic shielding type SFCL can be stable in the superconducting state, because there is no contact between the superconductor and the normal conductor. But this model needs large place to set up and in a fault condition, mechanical vibrations may happen to damage the superconductor or total device. In this paper, to solve these problems, the simplified model of magnetic shielding type SFCL was introduced.

This study is the modeling of resistive type SFCLs. There was numerical modeling and simulation using EMTP in the conventional modeling of SFCL. The numerical modeling was presented an analysis of numerical characteristic of SFCL. And the modeling using EMTP was made up of the study for setting method of specific parameters of a SFCL. This paper proposes the model of resistive type superconducting fault current limiter using EMTDC(Electromagnetic transients for DC analysis program). The simulation schemes that can be applied to the utility network readily and cheaply under various conditions considering the sort of fault, the capacity of systems as well are strongly expected and emphasized among researchers.

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.

For proper application of the superconducting fault current limiter(SFCL), the prior investigation of fundamental characteristics and its effects to the distribution systems are needed. The Current limiting behavior of SFCL is dominated by quenching and recovery characteristics. So, we have developed an EMTP/ATPDraw model of resistive type SCFL using MODELS language. The operating characteristics and current limiting behaviors of SFCL in distribution systems have been simulated and investigated.

In this paper, we analyzed the power consumption and the accumulated energy in HTSC (high-TC superconducting elements) according to the resistance of HTSC element and the winding current of transformer type SFCL (superconducting fault current limiter) using double quench. For the analysis, two different inductances of the one secondary winding among two secondary windings comprising the transformer type SFCL were selected and the short-circuit tests were carried out. The consumed power and the accumulated energy in HTSC element connected into the secondary winding with larger inductance were analyzed to be larger compared to the one connected into the secondary winding with lower inductance.

Maximum short circuit current of modern power system is becoming so large that the current should transmission capability. Although there are various kinds of method to solve this, approached from super conductivity Fault Current Limiter application viewpoint among them. High Temperature Superconductor-Fault Current Limiter (HTS-FCL) development is progressing according to HTS technology development, and system application is tried. For actual system application of such super conductivity FCL, an more efficient method was developed to find suitable FCL application locations using sensitivity factor comparing previous paper.

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.

We fabricated and tested a resistive type superconducting fault current limiter (SFCL) based on BSCCO-2212 bulk coils. Each bulk coils of the SFCL was designed to have the rated voltage of 220 $V_{rms}$ and the critical current($I_C$) of 320$\sim$340 A at 77K. Ten components in series, make the SFCL having the rated voltage of 2.2 $kV_{rms}$ for equal quench test. The fault test was conducted at an input voltage of 2.2 $kV_{rms}$ and fault current of 25 $kA_{rms}$. In addition, we examined the endurance characteristics for all bulk coils through repeat fault test. Test results shows that the SFCL successfully limited the fault current of 25$kA_{rms}$ to below $7{\sim}8kA_{p}$ within minimum 1.1msec after fault occurred. All bulk coils quenched together upon faults and shared the rated voltage evenly. The endurance test results show an equivalent among repeat fault test. During the quench process, average temperature of all bulk coils did not exceed 250 K, and the SFCL was totally safe during the whole operation.

Inside the existing superconducting cables, the superconducting wire carries a loss-free current, and the cable former (the stranded copper wire) bypasses the fault current to prevent damage and loss of the superconducting cable when the fault current is applied. The fault-current-limiting-type superconducting cable proposed in this paper usually carries a steady current; but in a fault state, the cable generates self-resistance that makes the fault current lower than a certain width. That is, the superconducting cable that transmitted only a low voltage and a large capacity power repetitively limits the fault current, as does a superconducting current limiter. To complete this structure, it is essential to investigate the mutual resistance relationship between the superconducting wires after applying a fault current. Therefore, in this paper, one kinds of superconducting wires (a wire without a stabilization layer) were connected parallel 4 tapes, respectively; and after applying a fault current, the current, voltage, resistance and thermal stability of the HTS thin-film wires were examined.
