We had designed thermally controlled superconducting switches using a general nonlinear optimized algorithm with constraints and tested its performance. Objective function was to minimize the total volume of the superconducting switch. And constraints were to have designed resistance in normal status and temperature. In order to compare performance of the optimized superconducting switch, we made another one which had geometrically different parameters but had same structure and resistance value when the superconductor part is normal status by heater. Objective function converged very rapidly. As result, volume of the adiabatic part and total volume of the switch were reduced to more than 70% and 30% respectively. Also, even if same heater power was supplied with NiCr wire heater, the optimized superconducting switch had very fast On-OFF switching performance comparing with unoptimized switch.

It is an important task to construct a recycling society with a low damage on the environment in our century. Magnetic separation is expected to be applied for the industrial waste treatment as an important supporting technology. In the magnetic separation of dry condition, the cohesive force between particles is strong compared with that in the wet condition's magnetic separation. The use of high magnetic field by the superconducting magnet enhances the powder's magnetic substance capture ability of the magnetic separation. In this study, the POSCO's coolant sludge of hot rolled steel was used for the superconducting magnetic separation of dry condition. Cryo-cooled NB-Ti superconducting magnet with 100 mm room temperature bore and 600 mm of height was used for magnetic separator.

Since the superconductor type II with high critical current and high critical magnetic field was discovered in 1961, there were many studies on the superconducting coil for high field and highly homogeneous field. The graphical method and the numerical method by Newton Raphson technique have been studied as the method for design of homogeneous superconducting coil. It is comparatively easy to get a compensating coil for any given main coil by the above methods, but it is too laborious to get a general solution for main coil dimension. This paper studies the optimal design method for minimum volume of superconducting coil under certain central field and highly homogeneous field. The present method makes use of the nonlinear programming for optimization. The optimal solution of NMR superconducting coils by this method are demonstrated very well.

The estimation of AC losses is demanded for higher efficiency and stability in AC use of superconducting coils. Hysteresis loss occurred by a.c. transport current is called of self field loss, and it is major part of losses generated in a.c. superconducting wire in case of located in low external magnetic field as superconducting transformer with iron core, or in short twist pitch wire, multiply stacking cable. In this paper, we calculate self field loss of superconducting wire.

An effective modeling and simulation scheme of a resistive type Superconducting fault Current Limiter (SFCL) using PSCAD/EMTDC is proposed in this paper. In case of High Temperature Superconducting (HTS) resistive type fault current limiter current limiting is implemented by the ultra-fast transition characteristics from the superconducting (non-resistive) state to the normal (resistive) state by overstepping the critical current density. The states can generally be divided into three sub-states: the superconducting state the quench state and the recovery state respectively. In order to provide alternative application schemes of a resistive type SFCL, an effective modeling and simulation method of the SFCL is necessary. For that purpose, in this study, an actual experiment based component model is developed and applied for the simulation of the real resistive type SFCL using PSCAD/EMTDC. The proposed simulation scheme can be implemented to the grid system readily under various system conditions including sort of faults and the system capacity as well. The simulation results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed model and simulation scheme.

We proposed a new power system, Superconducting Power System. The SPS consists of superconducting power cables, fault current limiters, and transformers. The basic concept is to replace 154kV conventional cables with 22.9kV superconducting cables and to convert a 154kV substation into a 22.9kV switching station in downtown area. For the application of the SPS to real power system, it is very important to construct the protection system of the SPS. This study presents a protection system for the new Superconducting Power System (SPS).

This paper Presents an effective modeling scheme of high temperature superconducting transformer. So far there were numerical modeling and designs for conventional transformers for various applications. Recently, the interest and the R&D in superconducting technology and devices such as superconducting generator, motor, cable, fault current limiter and transformer have been increased gradually. With those interests, this paper proposes a simulation model of high temperature superconducting transformer using PSCAD/EMTDC, which can be applied to the utility network simulation readily under various system conditions.

Owing to the discover of oxide superconducting over critical temperature100K, it is being made experimentally somewhere under the possibility that there is superconducting magnet by cooling liquid nitrogen. The issues of thermal stability and quench process of Low-Tc superconductor has been studied and used application of oxide superconducting magnets. However the quench propagation property of oxide superconductor, especially experimental data about thermal behavior has not been reported yet. Therefore we measured the effect of temperature dependance of quench propagation velocity, Vq, by using the short samples made up of silver sheathed Bismuth-family (2223phase) superconducting oxide tape.

The fault current has increased due to the large power demand in power distribution system and network distribution system. To protect the power system effectively from the increased fault current, the superconducting fault current limiter (SFCL) has been notified. However, the conventional SFCL has some problems such as cost, operation, recovery, loss. To solve some problems, the hybrid superconducting fault current limiter using the fast switch was proposed. However, hybrid SFCL also has a problem that is protection coordination in power distribution system with hybrid SFCL. In this paper, the fault current limiting characteristics of hybrid SFCL with first half cycle non-limiting operation according to the fault angle, the resistance of superconducting element, and the magnitude of Current Limit Resistor (CLR) which are the components of hybrid SFCL were analyzed through the experiments.

It is well recently recognized that quench is one of the serious problems for the integrity of superconducting magnets, which is mainly attribute to the rapid temperature rising in the magnet due to some extrinsic factors such as conductor motion, crack initiation etc. In order to apply acoustic emission(AE) technique effectively to monitor and diagnose superconducting magnets, it is essential to identify the sources of acoustic emission. In this paper, an acoustic emission technique has been used to monitor and diagnose quenching phenomenon in racetrack shaped superconducting magnets at cryogenic environment of 4.2K. For these purposes special attention was paid to detect AE signals associated with the quench of superconducting magnets. The characteristics of AE parameters have been analyzed by correlating with quench number, winding tension of superconducting coil and charge rate by transport current.
