A multifilamentary Bi-2223 HTS tape for superconducting power applications was studied through the fabrication of 250-meter long tapes by the PIT(powder in tube) process. To fabricate continuous long wire, a drawing machine, a two-drum bull block and a rolled tape winding machine were developed. Especially, 250-meter long tapes were heat treated in the shape of pancake coil to reduce the heat affect zone and to achieve the high critical current. Engineering critical current density was improved through both the enhancements of critical current density by control of thermal process and the increase of filling factor by using thin Ag alloy sheath tubes less than 1.5 mm in thickness. We have made successfully 250-meter long 37 filamentary tapes with high filling factor up to 31 % employing the modified drawing and rolling technique. The critical current of 250-meter long tapes with pancake coil type was measured by transport method at self-field up to 250 gauss of center field. The measured values, based on the transport critical current at self-field, $I_{c}$ -B characteristics and magnetic field analysis, are 34 A of I$_{c}$ and 4.0 $kA/\textrm{cm}^2$ of $J_{e}$ at 250 m, 77 K, and 0 T. We also have achieved the 56 A of I$_{c}$ and 7.0 $0 kA/\textrm{cm}^2$ of$ J_{e}$ in short tapes at 77K, self-field, and 1$mutextrm{V}$/cm.

초기충진압력이 서로 다른 시편에 가한 가압횟수와 열처리시간의 혼합공정이 임계전류밀도 특성에 미치는 영향을 관찰하기 위하여 power-in-tube방법으로 초전도 선재를 제조하였다. 일정 초기충진압력에서 테이프화를 위한 열처리 및 가압이 혼합공정횟수가 증가할수록 임계전류밀도가 증가하였다. 초기충진압력이 1000kg/$cm^{2}$에서 Bi-2223 고온상 체적비가 가장 높게 나타났고 결정립이 판상으로 성장되었을 뿐만 아니라 C축과 직각방향으로 잘 배양되어 있음을 관찰할 수 있었다. 특히 초기충진압력 1000kg/$cm^{2}$의 시편을 두께를 줄이기 위하여 3회 가압하고 450시간 열처리하였을때 임계전류밀도가 5800A/$cm^{2}$를 나타내었으며 이를 중심으로 500, 2500kg/$cm^{2}$이 양측단으로 가우시안분포를 보였다. 결론적으로 시편의 임계특성은 적정 초기충진압력, Bi-2223 고온상 체적비, 테이프화를 위한 가압횟수, 결정의 일방향배열, 결정립의 성장등에 강하게 의존함을 알 수 있었다.

The thermal characteristics of quench propagation is a crucial problem for the stability of the superconductor. The objective of this study is to simulate the quench propagation with the variation of disturbance energy in Bi-2223/Ag HTS pancake coil. In this analysis, the temperature-time trace of a point away from heater was calculated under conditions of different quench energy. The critical disturbance energy between quench propagation and quench recovering was calculated, In addition, the minimum quench energy with different transport currents was obtained through the present simulation. These results are significant to the application of HTS.

In this paper, dc reactor lot the inductive high-Tc superconducting fault current limiter (SFCL) was optimally designed by finite element method(FEM). The Prototype high-Tc do reactor was manufactured and compared to the results of design. This dc reactor consists of 4∼stacked double pancake coils which are wounded with Bi-2223 wire coated with SUS315L. Kapton tape is used for the insulation of turn to turn and layer to layer. Each pancake is connected in series by soldering Finally, optimal design and manufacture method lot the dc reactor is suggested in this paper. Through the comparison of result of optimal design and experimental result of prototype high-Tc superconducting dc reactor, reliance on the design of the high-Tc dc reactor tot the 1.2 kV/80 A SFCL is proved.

To be applied to electrical equipment HTSC tapes have to endure external stress and so on. The critical current density has been shown depending on the mechanical properties. strain and bending stress. AC loss reduction is primary concern in the development of such high-efficiency equipment. AC losses in Bi-2223 silver-sheathed tapes, both single and multi-filamentary, were investigated by means of AC magnetization techniques. The results were compared with the hysteresis loss equation based on Bean model and the eddy current loss equation. The AC loss of the mono-filamentary tape was the hysteresis. On the contrary, the AC loss of the multi-filamentary tape was substantially dominated by the eddy current loss in the Ag matrix.

The substantial improvement of the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) can be achieved with small-size samples or low-field MRI system by high-temperature superconducting(HTS) RF coil. The typical HTS RF coil made of HTS thin film is expensive and is limited the coil geometry to planar surface coil. In this study, commercial Bi-2223 HTS tapes was used as RF coil for a 0.35T permanent MRI system. It has advantages of both much lower cost and easier fabrication over HTS thin film coil. SNR gain of the image obtained from the HTS RF coil over a conventional Cu RF coil at room temperature was about 2.4-fold and 1.9-fold using the spin echo pulse sequence and gradient echo pulse sequence respectively.

In this paper, the authors propose the RTDS (Real Time Digital Simulator) simulation method which puts a real HTS (High Temperature Superconducting) tape into the simulated voltage feedback system of HTS tape. To perform the RTDS based simulation, the voltage feedback system of HTS tape with hardware is designed and connected to the RTDS. This simulation method is the world first in order to obtain much better for installation of HTS power cable into a utility network.
