By varying fabricating process, precursor powders with different initial conditions were prepared. Subsequently, Bi-2223/Ag tapes were made through these powders. The effects of precursor powders on the phase evolution and Jr properties of Bi-2223/Ag tapes were studied along with several thermomechanical cycles. Our results showed that the initial conditions of precursor powders could strongly influence the phase formation rate and $J_{c}$ value in final tapes. The factors of precursor powders that influence the phase formation and $J_{c}$ of Bi-2223/Ag tapes must be studied and optimized in combination.ion.

$Bi_{2}Sr_{2}CaCu_{2}O_{x}$(Bi-2212) and $Bi_{2}Sr_{2}Ca_{2}Cu_{3}O_{y}$(Bi-2223) high-$T_{c}$ superconductor(HTS) coating have been prepared by plasma spraying and heaat treatment. The Bi-2212 HTS coating later is synthesized through the peritectic reaction between Sr-Ca-Cu oxide coating layer and Bi-Cu oxide coating later, and $Bi_{2}Sr_{2}CaCu_{2}O_{y}$(Bi-2212) superconducting phase grow by partial melting process. The superconducting characteristic depends strongly on the conditions of the partial melting process. the Bi-2212 HTS layer consists of the whiskers grown in the diffusion direction. Above the 2212 layer, Bi-2223 phase and secondary phase was observed. The secondary phase is distributed uniformly over the whole surface. This is caused to the microcrack on the coatings surface. Despite everything, the film shows superconducting with an onset $T_{c}$ of about 115K. There are two changes steps. One changes (1step) at 115K is due to the diamagnetism of the Bi-2223 phase and the other changes (2step) at 78K is due to the diamagnetism of the Bi-2212 phase.

Bi-2223 tapes have been developed for low-field power applications at liquid nitrogen temperature. When the Bi-2223 tapes are used in an application such as a power transmission cable or a power transformer, they are supplied with an AC transport current and exposed to an external magnetic field generated by neighboring tape's AC currents simultaneously. AC loss taking into account such real applications is a crucial issue for power applications of the Bi-2223 tapes to be feasible. In this paper, the transport losses for different AC current levels and arrangements of the neighboring tapes have been measured in a 1.5 m long Bi-2223 tape. The significant increase of the transport losses due to neighboring tape's AC currents is observed. An increase of the transport losses caused by a decrease of the Bi-2223 tape's critical current is a minor effect. The measured transport losses could not be explained by a dynamic resistance loss based on DC voltage-current characteristics in combination with the neighboring tape's AC currents. The transport losses do not depend on the frequency of the neighboring tape's AC currents but its arrangements in the range of small current especially.

In practical applications of HTS tapes for electric devices such as coils and power cables, the jointing of HTS tapes is needed. In magnet applications superconducting joints are needed to achieve very low resistance at the joint, but for power device applications, a slightly higher joint resistance may be acceptable. In this study, an economical joint with good mechanical and electrical integrity could be achieved for Bi-2223 tapes which can be applicable to electric power applications. A lap joint method has been used. The joint resistance and strength of the jointed Bi2223 tapes have been evaluated. Electro-mechanical properties of the joint sample under tension have been examined and compared with the case of the single tapes.

Phase transformation of Bi-2223 tape during the final heat treatment has been investigated through the various duration time of heat treatment in a specially designed 3-step heat treatment. It was found that the phase assemblage in the sintering was determined by the sintering time and temperature. In this study, sintering time was changed to optimize the Bi-2223 phase assemblage, and acquire high critical current density. High critical current samples with Ic = 85 A and Je = 8.9 kA/$cm^2$ have been measured at 77K and self-field for 55-filament tapes sintered by optimum condition.

The influences of mixed mode of bending-tension on the Ic degradation and their interaction on the strain effect were evaluated in this study. A test fixture which applies a mixed deformation mode of bending-tension to HTS tapes has been newly devised. When the strain induced in the tape due to the mixed deformation mode was expressed as a total tensile strain, the irreversible strain to the critical current degradation of Bi-2223 tapes increased when compared with the case of simple bending mode, and the value at both ends were larger than that at the central region of the bend part. The Ic degradation behavior at the region exceeding the irreversible strain showed quiet a rapid drop of the Ic when compared with the simple bending cases. As the applied bending strain increased namely as the diameter of mandrel adopted decreased, the apparent irreversible strain of Bi-2223 tapes increased However, the increment decreased as the mandrel diameter decreased. As a result, it could be found that the tension to be applied to the Bi-2223 tapes during cabling of HTS tapes should be smaller, as the mandrel diameter becomes smaller.

초전도 선재를 전력 기기에 적절히 응용하기 위하여 사고 시 과전류에 대한 안전성 여부를 확인할 필요가 있다. 본 논문에서는 임계전류 이상의 영역에서 Bi-2223 선재의 저항 및 온도변화 특성을 알아보았다. 임계전류가 57 A인 Bi-2223 선재에 임계 전류 이상의 과전류를 인가한 후 전류 크기 및 사고시간에 따른 저항 변화를 조사하였다. 또한 열전대를 사용하여 과전류 인가에 따른 선재의 온도 변화를 측정하여 저항에 의해 유추한 결과와 상호 비교하였다. 이로부터 Bi-2223 선재에 과전류 인가 시 발생된 저항으로부터 간접적으로 얻은 선재의 온도와 측정된 줄열은 매우 잘 일치하였으며, 이로부터 과전류 인가 시간과 크기에 따른 선재의 온도 변화를 예측할 수 있었다.

AC loss is an important issue in the design of high-T$\sub$c/ superconducting power cables which consist of a number of Bi-2223 tapes wound on a former. In the cables, the tapes have different critical currents intrinsically. And they are electrically connected to each other and current leads. These make loss measurements considerably complex, especially for short samples of laboratory size. So special cautions are required in the positioning of voltage leads for measuring the true loss voltage. In this work we have prepared a conductor composed of three Bi-2223 tapes with different critical currents. The critical current and AC loss characteristics in the conductor have experimentally investigated. The results show that for uniform current distributions the conductor's critical current is proportional to the critical current of the Bi-2223 tape to which a voltage lead is attached. However it depends on the current non-uniformity parameter in the conductor rather than the tape's critical currents for nonuniform current distributions. The loss tests indicate that the AC loss is dependent on arrangements of voltage leads but not on their contact positions. The measured losses in the conductor also agree well with the sum of the transport losses measured in each Bi-2223 tape.

The critical current degradation behaviors of multifilamentary Bi-2223 superconducting tapes under pressurized liquid nitrogen were investigated using a r-shaped sample holder which gives a series of bending strains to tape. Three kinds of externally-reinforced Bi-2223 tapes with different hermeticity were used as samples. The tape with the thicker reinforcement layer had a better bending strain tolerance of $I_c$, but when the bending strain was calculated at the outermost filament, the $I_c$ degradation behavior became identical. For all samples, $I_{c0}$ decreased with the increase of applied pressure, but the $I_c$ degradation behavior with bending strain at each pressure level was similar. Furthermore, after depressurization from 1 MPa to atmospheric pressure, $I_c$ was completely recovered to its initial values. When the samples were warmed up to room temperature after pressurization tests, the ballooning damage occurred at lower bending strain regions. The region where ballooning was observed was identical to the one where the significant $I_c$ degradation occurred.

High current density Bi-2223 tapes have recently become commercially available. There are some important characteristics of the tapes, e.g. critical current, ac loss, fault current characteristics, for an application such as a power cable or a power transformer. They have been investigated experimentally and discussed in this paper.
