This paper presents output characteristics of a linear switched reluctance motor (LSRM) with excitation windings wound by using high-temperature superconducting (HTS) tapes. In a double-sided LSRM, Bi-2223 or YBCO tape conductors are used for the excitation windings. The characteristics of the LSRM are obtained by a finite element method analysis. We can obtain large thrust compared with a conventional LSRM by using YBCO tape conductors. Also, the effect of a configuration of the YBCO coil on the thrust is calculated. We discuss a suitable coil configuration for the average thrust upgrading.

Specially, High Temperature Superconducting power-transmission cable(HTS cable), 3-phase 100m long, 22.9kV class HTS power transmission cable system have been developed by Korea Electrotechnology Research Institute (KERI) and LS cable Ltd. that is one of 21st century frontier project in Korea. This cable was installed in KEPCO(Go-chang) testing site. In case of manufacturing HTS cable, superconducting joint is very important because they need very long tapes. Therefore, this paper gives some investigation of AC Loss in joined HTS tape by using several joint methods. Finally, this paper was shown background data for the form of HTS cable joint.

1 km length of Bi-2223/Ag superconducting wires were fabricated by stacking, drawing process with advanced heat-treatment schedules. Intermediate annealing was carried out to increase the homogeneity and uniformity of the superconducting filaments embedded in the silver matrix. Phase modification from tetragonal to orthorhombic Bi-2212 by pre heat treatment(PHT) was executed to improve the texture and phase transformation of Bi-2223. Drawing stress was measured to Predict the sausaging and stress limit, Rolling parameters such as thickness, width and winding tension were investigated to roll the tape with uniformity. Critical current of 1 km length of superconducting tapes was measured about 50 A continuously after final sintering.

When high temperature superconducting tapes is fabricated using the PIT (Powder In Tube) method, the length of HTS tapes is increased more than 500 ${\sim}$ 1,000 times of initial powder packed billet. On mechanical processing, heterogeneous properties between the ceramic superconducting core and Ag/Ag alloy sheath occur the non-uniformity deformation as like sausaging that deteriorate the critical current properties of HTS tapes. In this study, we investigated the workability of Bi-2223/Ag/Ag alloy sheath tapes fabricated by the PIT method involving a number of different mechanical processes, multi drawing and rolling. In order to obtain the high critical current density and high uniformity of Bi-2223/Ag sheath tapes, the influences of powder packing density, drawing die angle and rolling parameters were studied. We found that the roll diameter is an important variable in the rolling process, as critical current of tapes rolled using 250 mm rolls was higher than that using 150 mm rolls.

For the practical use of a superconducting wire to magnet application, it is important to assess the Young modulus and other mechanical properties of HTS tapes. In order to establish a test method of mechanical properties for oxide composite superconductors. tensile tests of Bi-2223 multi- filamentary tapes were carried out at room temperature, as an activity of the International round robin test proposed by the committee of VAMAS/TWA 16-Subrgroup. The tapes consisting of mutli-filamentary showed a three stage tensile behavior. At the initial stage of the stress-streain curve. The elastic deformation existed in a quite nattrow strain region. But the plastic deformation was observed in a wide strain region due to the platic flow of the Ag alloy matrix. The results of RRT were also reported and discussed.

Bi-2223/Ag superconducting wires have been mainly prepared by a powder-in-tube method. The drawing and the rolling are main processes to increase the core density and wire length. In the fabrication of long wire, especially, the drawing should be precisely controlled to assure the filament homogeneity. In this paper, the influences of drawing die angle, bearing length and reduction ratio on the sausaging and the critical current density of the wire are investigated. Single cored and multi-filamentary wires are fabricated by PIT method with different conditions. The core densities and sausaging in the wires are investigated and are discussed regarding their relationship to the I$_{c}$. It was made clear that the geometry of drawing die is sensitively dependent on the sausaging. The improvement of I$_{c}$ was achieved by reducing the die angle and high core density.ity.

Generally Bi-2223/Ag tapes have a broad S/N transition region and their sheath is a good electric conductor. In this study, the current distribution between superconductor and metal sheath in HTS tapes were investigated. AC with its peak value above 10 times $I_{c}$ was applied to HTS tapes for around 6 cycles and V-I characteristics were measured. Using the resistance of the sheath and V-I curves, the current distribution between superconductor and metal sheath was calculated. When 150 $A_{p}$ was applied, more than 2/3 of the current flows through superconductor. However, in the case of 304 $A_{p}$, most of the applied current came to flow through the metal sheath at the 6th cycle.e.e.e.

Superconducting power cable is one of the most promising energy application of high-Tc superconductors (HTS). Thus, we investigated previously the characteristics on electrical and mechanical Bi-2223 Ag sheathed tape. And a prototype HTS cable have been designed, constructed and tested. The result shows that the transport current of HTS cable (1, 19-filament) in LN2 was 116[A], 240[A], respectively. And AC loss of HTS cable(19-filament) was 1.7 [W/m] in 240 [A] loading.
