In this work, we investigated quench characteristics of matrix-type superconducting fault current limiters (MFCLs) according to the turn number of reactors. The reactors used in MFCLs apply magnetic field to superconducting elements within reactors when fault currents surge into MFCL systems. It makes the fast and simultaneous quenches between superconducting elements. Also reactors decrease the fault power burden of superconducting elements by bypassing the partial fault currents to itself, when quench occurs. These structure proposed in this work can be expected to achieve much more current limiting capacity even though it uses less superconductors compared with other type SFCLs. Three reactors were made by Bakelite. These reactors with the turn number of 190, 380 and 570, had the length of 270 mm and diameter of 80 mm. We reported experimental results, including fault currents, fault voltages and resistance in superconducting elements according to the turn number of reactors. We confirmed that experimental results will be useful in next future plan for the real power grid.

The SmBa$_2$Cu$_3$O$\sub$x/ single crystals were used as seeds to induced YBCO growth in MTG process. As the result, the large bulk oriented YBCO superconductors were prepared with dimension of plane 21mm and 32mm in diameter and 10mm in height. The typical Jc value of the sample is 6.5${\times}$10$^4$A/$\textrm{cm}^2$ and its flux float force is 4.6N/$\textrm{cm}^2$. The oxygen absorption in large bulk textured YBCO samples in pure oxygen was studied at several constant temperatures. It can be divided into two steps: a chemical reaction step and a diffusion step.

High TC Y-Ba-Cu-O Superconductors were fabricated by sintering, sinter+HIP encapsulation. Specimens were sintered at 920$^{\circ}C$∼960$^{\circ}C$. A part of sintered specimens were treated by HIP, and HIP conditions were 150 MPa, 880$^{\circ}C$, 30min under the Ar atmosphere. The relative density of HIP specimens was increased 5∼8% in comparison with sintered one(90∼93% relative density). X-ray analysis represented the orthorhobic-tetragonal phase transition with annealing condition. Tc measurements showed a sharp drp within 3$^{\circ}C$, 91K onset and 89K offset. Transport current density(Jc) of sintered specimens showed typically∼159A/㎤ but that of sinter+HIP encapsulation was decreased to∼89A/㎤ because of insufficient oxygen diffusion, Hardness(H) and Toughness(Kc) were increased to 38GPa; and 2.9 MPam$\^$$\frac{1}{2}$/, respectively.

Superconducting power cable is one of the most promising energy application of high-$T_c$ superconductors (HTS). A prototype HTS cable have been constructed multi-layer cable using Bi-2223 tape and tested. The result shows that the total transport current of HTS cable in $LN_2$ was 475[A], and transport current passed through almost the outer layer (2-layer). Also, AC transport losses in outer layer of HTS cable was proportion to $I^2$ and higher than losses of inner layer. As magnetic distribution were concentrated on outer layer.

HTS superconducting tapes are now commercially available for practical applications such as magnets and cables. Since superconductors in such applications are subjected to high mechanical loads that can significantly degrade the superconducting properties, mechanical properties and the strain tolerance known as the strain effect on superconducting properties are needed to be estimated for developing superconducting devices. The progress in technology achieved in the field of strain effect evaluation on the critical current of HTS tapes in various deformation modes is discussed in this study.

The superconducting generator and motor have many advantages over the conventional machines. The better characteristics originates from the higher magnetic field density by way of superconducting field coil which conducts the operating current with very large density. The major merits of the superconducting machines can be explained as the smaller size and weight as well as the higher efficiency. The compactness would be very useful for the applications such as ship propulsion motors and the higher efficiency is expected to play a good role in saving the electricity generation cost for the generators used in power plants. In spite of these advantages the main reason for the lazy commercialization is known as the expensiveness of the superconductors and the cryogenic systems. In this paper focusing on the superconducting generator, we will consider and estimate the economic effectiveness when the machines permeate into the actual AC generator market in Korea gradually.

It is important to improve the efficiencies of motors to overcome problems such as decreasing energy reserves and environmental pollution. Superconductors are promising for developing high-efficiency motors. However, superconducting wires must be kept in critical conditions and the AC loss needs to be minimized. In this paper, a design of a superconducting interior permanent magnet synchronous motor (IPMSM) is proposed that reduces the AC loss. The characteristics of superconducting and normal-conducting IPMSMs are compared. The proposed superconducting IPMSM has a low AC loss and a very high efficiency at low speeds.

We have investigated effects of the lattice mismatch between the LPE films and the substrates. We have grown $La_{2-x}Sr_{x}CuO_{4}$(x=0.1 to 0.15) single crystalline films on single crystalline substrates having different lattice parameter ratio c/a e.g., $La_{2-x}Sr_{x}Cu_{1-y}Zn_{y}O_{4},\;La_{2-x}Ba_{x}CuO_{4},\; LaSrAlO_{4}\;and\;La_{2-x}Sr_{x}Cu_{1-y}Al_{y}O_{4}$ etc., using the IR-LPE technique. The superconducting properties of the grown films were found to vary significantly depending on the lattice mismatch with different substrates.

Effects of $Ag_2O$ doping on the electromagnetic properties in the BiSrCaCuO superconductors. The electromagnetic properties of the $Ag_2O$ doped and undoped BiSrCaCuO superconductor were evaluated to investigate the contribution of the pinning centers to the magnetic effect. It was confirmed experimentally that a large amount of magnetic flux was trapped in the $Ag_2O$ doped sample than that in the undoped one, indicating that the pinning centers of magnetic flux are related closely to the occurrence of the magnetic effect. It is considered that the area where normal conduction takes place increases by adding $Ag_2O$ and the magnetic flux penetrating through the sample increases. The results suggested that Ag acts to increase the pinning centers of the magnetic flux, contributing to the occurrence of the electromagnetic properties.
