Abstract

In the response to the demand for electrical energy, much effort aimed to develop and commercialize high temperature superconducting (HTS) power equipments has been made around the world. In Korea, companies and universities are developing a power distribution and transmission class HTS transformer that is one of the 21st century superconducting frontier projects. The composite winding of transmission class HTS transformer is concentrically arranged H1-L-H2 from center. H1 is continuous disk type, L is layer type and H3 is continuous disk type. For the development of transmission HTS transformer with composite winding, the cryogenic insulation technology should be established. We have been analyzed insulation composition and investigated electrical characteristics such as breakdown of $LN_2$, barrier, kapton films, surface flashover on FRP in $LN_2$. We are going to compare with measured each value and apply the value to most suitable insulating design of the HTS transformer.
