The electrical insulation design of high voltage superconducting fault current limiters (SFCLs) should be confirmed to be applied for the stabilization of the power grid. This paper describes numerical analysis and AC dielectric experiments for developing high voltage SFCLs. The electric field distributions between applied high voltage part and ground were calculated by finite element method (FEM) simulation tool and AC criterion of liquid nitrogen at 200 kPa was calculated from correlation between the field utilization factor and FEM simulation results. This paper deals with ceonceptual insulation design of a 154 kV class single-phase no-inductively wound solenoid type SFCL which was focused on gap distance between the cryostat and superconducting coils. Furthermore, the shield ring effect was confirmed to reduce maximum electric field at applied high voltage part.

We reported an AC PDP structure with grooved front panel dielectric layer. The structure exhibits low breakdown voltage, better luminance, and better endurance to crosstalk in high Xe contents. It also shows less luminous efficacy then conventional structure because of the thinner dielectric layer, but we can apply the higher Xe contents to the grooved dielectric structure, which results in the higher luminous efficacy. We made experiments with the Xe contents from 4 to16% and total gas pressure from 400 to 600Torr. The grooved dielectric structure shows the improvement of 20% luminous efficacy and 17% luminance. The firing voltages lower about 40V at 600Torr and Xe 12, 16%. The discharge characteristics of grooved dielectric structure are verified also with 2D simulation.

Poly (vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF) samples were implanted by using high energy (MeV)F$^{2+}$ and Cl$^{2+}$ ions. We observed that AC dielectric constant of the ion-implanted PVDF samples decreased from 10.5 to 2.5 at 1 kHz as the ion dosage increased from 10$^{11}$ to 3 $\times$ 10$^{14}$ ions/$\textrm{cm}^2$. From differential scanning calorimetry experiments, we observed that PVDF samples become more disordered state through the ion implantation. The decrease of the number of bonding of C-H and C-F and the increase of unsaturated bonding were observed from X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy experiments. The emission of HF and H$_2$ molecules during the ion implantation was detected by residual gas analyzer spectrum. Based upon the results, we analyzed that the low AC dielectric constant of the MeV ion-implanted PVDF samples originated from the reduction of polarization due to the structural change of the CF$_2$ molecules in the MeV ion-implanted PVDF samples.les.

In order to investigate the electrical properties of X-ray tube oils for insulating and cooling, the breakdown characteristics in temperature range of $20\sim100[^{\circ}C]$, that of AC breakdown in 0.5~2.5[mm] of gap length, we are made researches. The classification for the physical properties of oil for X-ray tube by FTIR and H-NMR experiments was confirmed to type of mineral oils. As for the dependance of breakdown characteristics due to electrode gap length, breakdown voltage was found nearly uniform by impurity effect according to the increase of gap. As a result the characteristics for AC breakdown, the dielectric strength was increased to $90[^{\circ}C]$ but decreased over $90[^{\circ}C]$ in the temperature range.

With the intention of investigating the breakdown properties of oil-immersed transformer oils in temperature range of 20∼100[$^{\circ}C$], we are made researches AC breakdown in the gap of 500∼2,500[$\mu\textrm{m}$]. The classification for the physical properties of oil for oil-immersed transformer by FTH and $^1$H-NMR experiments was confirmed to type of mineral oils. As the dependance of breakdown properties due to electrode gap length variation, breakdown voltage was found increasing according to the increase of gap, while dielectric strength was decreasing. As a result the characteristics for AC breakdown, It goes to prove that the breakdown voltage was increased to 90[$^{\circ}C$] but decreased over 90[$^{\circ}C$] in the temperature range. Also, breakdown voltage was found increasing in the increase of gap and the rising of temperature according to Weibull distribution.

A sub-cooled liquid nitrogen cooling system is known as a most promising method to develop large scale superconducting apparatuses such as superconducting fault current limiters and superconducting cables [1]. Gaseous helium (GHe), gaseous nitrogen ($GN_2$) and sulfur hexafluoride ($SF_6$) are commonly used for designing an high voltage applied superconducting device as an injection gaseous medium [2, 3]. In this paper, the analysis on the dielectric characteristics of GHe, $GN_2$ and $SF_6$ are conducted by designing and manufacturing sphere-to-plane electrode systems. The AC withstand voltage experiments on the various gaseous insulation media are carried out and the results are analyzed by using finite element method (FEM) considering field utilization factors (${\xi}$). It is found that the electric field intensity at sparkover ($E_{MAX}$) of insulation media exponentially decreases according to ${\xi}$ increases. Also, the empirical expressions of the functional relations between $E_{MAX}$ and ${\xi}$ of insulation media are deduced by dielectric experiments and computational analyses. It is expected that the electrical insulation design of applied superconducting devices could be performed by using the deduced empirical formulae without dielectric experiments.

The study on the dielectric characteristics of gaseous insulation medium is important for designing current leads of superconducting machines using a sub-cooled liquid nitrogen ($LN_2$) cooling method. In a sub-cooled $LN_2$ cooling system, the temperature of gaseous insulation medium surrounding current leads varies from the temperature of coolant to 300 K according to the displacement between the electrode system and the surface of sub-cooled $LN_2$. In this paper, AC withstand voltage experiments on gaseous nitrogen according to temperature are conducted. Also, AC withstand voltage experiments on gaseous nitrogen according to pressure, size of electrode, and gap length between two electrodes are performed. It is found that there is a functional relation between the electrical breakdown voltage and the field utilization factor (${\xi}$). As a result, the empirical formula for estimating an electrical breakdown voltage is deduced by adopting the concept of field utilization factors. It is expected that the experimental results presented in this paper are helpful to design current leads for a high voltage superconducting apparatus such as a superconducting fault current limiter (SFCL) using a sub-cooled $LN_2$ cooling system.

Recently in accordance with the rapid development of the industrial society, the accidents caused by dielectric breakdown have been increasing in power grid. It is important to prevent the dielectric breakdown of a high voltage apparatus to reduce the damage from electrical hazards. To establish an electrically reliable database of insulation design criteria for high voltage apparatus, a study on dielectric characteristics test is indispensable. In this study, dielectric characteristics according to field utilization factors (${\xi}$) which are represented as the ratio of mean electric field to maximum electric field are investigated. the dielectric breakdown experiments by using several kinds of electrode systems made with stainless steel are performed by AC breakdown voltage under air-insulation. Also, the experimental results are analyzed by the Weibull distribution. As a result, it is found that the dielectric characteristics of air-insulation are determined by ${\xi}$ as well as arrangement of electrode systems. It is considered that the results of this study would be applicable to designing the air-insulated high voltage apparatuses.
