Abstract

The 600kJ class high temperature superconducting magnetic energy storage (HTS SMES) system is being developed by Korean Electrotechnology Research Institute (KERI). The system is operated in cryogenic temperature and high vacuum condition. The SMS magnet was cooled by conduction cooling method using a Gifford-McMahon cycle cryocooler. Thus, electric insulation design at cryogenic temperature and high vacuum is a key and an important element that should be established to accomplish compact design is a big advantage of HTS SMES. This paper describes the electric insulation design, fabrication and experimental results for a mini model of conduction cooled HTS SMES.
