Magnetic circuit design of HTS (High Temperature Superconducting) motor is important to achieve the power at a given load condition, and it is essential to the thermal design for HTS motor rotors. To determine the result of thermal design, the magnetic field distribution has to be known exactly. On the basis of the 2 dimensional magnetic field analysis, the magnetic field distributions due to several cases are calculated by using Biot-Savart equation and magnetic image method. And the I$_{c}$ of HTS field coil was calculated by using I$_{c}$-B(equation omitted) curve and 3D FEA(Finite Element Analysis).is).

This paper presents an effective simulation method for the high temperature superconducting (HTS) transformer using PSCAD/ EMTDC. Although researches and developments are performed for the HTS technologies, problems such as AC loss and quench phenomenon need to be solved for efficient design of HTS transformer. In addition, pre-study on the HTS transformer is a sort of time and cost consuming work, thus it is very worthy or being analyzing the characteristics of the HTS transformer in advance through a proper simulation method. It is very important to analyze the HTS devices by the simulation for seeking suitable and reasonable parameters for the practical application of those apparatuses in advance. A software- based component is suggested for- the simulation of the HTS transformer using PSCAD/ EMTDC and the numerical results are analyzed in detail in this paper.

This paper describes the results of a basic study (on a model samples) for the development of 22.9 kV high temperature superconducting (HTS) cable. The authors have established that the factors that decide the performance of HTS cables are butt gaps in tape insulation and carbon particles from semiconductive layer. The insulation performance of HTS cables is determined by size and quality of these elements. In the model tests of HTS cables, the minimum PD inception stress of the tape insulation impregnated with liquid nitrogen was found and insulation thickness was calculated from this result.

The cryogenic system for 6.6 kV/200 A inductive superconducting fault current limiter (SFCL) was developed at Yonsei university in 2003. The sub-cooled nitrogen cryogenic system could be applied to not only SFCL but also many other applied high-Tc superconducting (HTS) devices like superconducting motor, superconducting generator and superconducting magnetic energy storage (SMES). Generally, the cooling capacity of GM-cryocooler depends on the load temperature. Therefore it is necessary to perform the cooling capacity test at no load condition to calculate the exact cooling power and heat load of cryogenic system. In this research, the cooling capacity test of GM-cryocooler was executed and the heat load of developed cryogenic system was calculated. The long run operation test results of sub-cooled nitrogen cryogenic system were successful in pressure and temperature condition. Moreover, the design and fabrication method of cryogenic system were introduced and the test results were described.

For large scale applications of high temperature superconductor(HTS) such as transmission cables, motors and generators, long length of flexible HTS conductors is required. Currently, HTS tape that is capable of being fabricated in long length by industrial processes is the Bi-2223 HTS tape. In this study, we fabricated 19 filamentary Bi-2223($Bi_{1.8}$$Pb_{0.4}$$Sr_{2}$$Ca_{2}$$Cu_{3}$$O_{10+X}$) HTS tape with 100m length by PIT(Powder In Tube) process. Critical current(Ic) of this long length tape was measured 18.5 A at 77 K, self field and short sample Ic is 32.5 A at the same condition. Critical current of 100m length tape was decreased by about 1/3 compared to that of short tape. This was mainly resulted from the increase of non homogeneity in oxide layer.

The thermal characteristics of solid nitrogen are investigated by experiment and analysis for the purpose of evaluating its feasibility as a cooling medium for HTS (high T$_{c}$ superconductor) magnets. A cryostat to refrigerate a liquid-nitrogen container well below its freezing temperature with a 2-stage GM cryocooler is designed and constructed. The spatial distribution of temperature is measure as a function of time during the freezing and melting processes. from which the thermal diffusivity of solid nitrogen can be approximately calculated. the freezing process is formulated and solved by the integral method with an assumption of phase equilibrium at the solid-liquid interface and experimental observation. It may be concluded that the thermal diffusion in solid phase is much slower than in liquid and the degree of super-saturation is quite severe in the solidification of nitrogen.n.

For large scale applications of high temperature superconductor (HTS) such as transmission cables, motors and generators, long length of flexible HTS conductor is required. Currently, Bi-2223 HTS tape is capable of being fabricated in longer than 100 m length by industrial processes. In this study, we fabricated 100 m 19 filamentary Bi-2223 ($Bi_{1.8}Pb_{0.4}Sr_2Ca_2O_{10+x}$) HTS tape by PIT (Power in Tube) process. Critical current(IC) of this long length tape was measured 18.5 A at 77K, self field. Critical current of 100 m length tape was mainly resulted from the increase of inhomogeneity in oxide from the increase of inhomogeneity in oxide layer. Engineering critical current (Je=Ic/total tape cross-section area) that is important factor for practical applications and fabrication cost was measured 2.2 kA/cm2.

Recently, the development of the HTS power cable is actively promoted. As the length of HTS power cable increases, there have been many efforts to develop large capacity cryocooler. Among the various cryocooler, the Brayton refrigerator is the most competitive for HTS power cable. The Brayton refrigerator is composed of recuperative heat exchangers, a compressor, and a cryogenic turbo expander. In these components, the cryogenic turbo expander is a part to decrease the temperature and it is the most significant component that is closely related with overall system efficiency. It rotates with high speed using a high-pressure helium or neon gas at cryogenic temperature. This paper describes the design of a 10 kW class Brayton refrigeration cycle and the cryogenic turbo expander. Flow and structural analysis are performed for the rotating impeller and nozzle to verify the efficiency and the design performance.

The Partial breakdown (PBD) and complete breakdown (BD) voltage characteristics in a composite insulation system of glass fiber reinforced plastics (GFRP) and liquid nitrogen are investigated to find the PBB and BD characteristics in solenoid type high temperature superconducting (HTS) coils at quench. The electrode system used is made from a coaxial spiral coil-to-cylindrical electrode with an insulation barrier and spacers, and is immersed in liquid nitrogen. A heater is mounted inside the coil electrode to generate boiling which occurs on quenched superconducting coils. The experimental results show that: (1) breakdown voltages are affected severely by the risetime of the applied voltage and the PBD inception voltage, (2) two kinds of BD mechanisms are found depending on the shape of the spacer, length of cooling channel and heater power.

It is widely acknowledged that the value of critical current in High Temperature Superconducting (HTS) tape has a great influence on B. Therefore, when HTS cable is designed, a method to reduce the B should be considered in order to improve the capacity. This paper deals with the influence of the space between each HTS tape by using 2D analytical method. From the analysis results, it is found that the decrease of the space causes the decrease of B. Moreover, another HTS cable, which has a very small space, is analyzed by 3D analytical method and it is manufactured. The validity of these analysis results are verified by comparison with experimental results.
