In this paper, we studied electric Insulation characteristics of synthetic Laminated Polypropylene Paper (LPP) in liquid nitrogen (L$N_2$) for the application to high temperature super-conducting (HTS) cable. And, we selected the insulation paper/L$N_2$composite insulation type for the electric insulation design of a HTS cable. Furthermore, we compared the breakdown characteristics of the butt gap and bended mini-model cable that comes into being in this kind of cryogenic insulation type. It is necessary to understand the winding parameter of insulation paper/L$N_2$composite insulation.

To fabricate a 0.7 FJ, 100 kVA $\mu$SMES device for improving power quality in sensitive electric loads, we developed a design code for a $\mu$SMES device and designed the 0.7 MJ $\mu$SMES device by using it. In this study special emphasis was placed in influence of winding tensions on quench currents of superconducting coils because dry superconducting coils are usually quenched by local disturbances due to strand motions. We first investigated the quench currents of a few kA class superconducting cables for various winding tensions experimentally. To prove the validity of the code and develop all techniques related to fabrication and test of the 0.7 MJ $\mu$SMES device, a smaller size superconducting coil was wound with high winding tension of about 15 kgf/$mm^2$ based on the test results of superconducting cables and tested. It isshown form the test results that designed parameters for the smaller size superconducting coil are in good agreements with measured ones and the quench current of the coil with high winding tension reaches nearly to the critical current of the superconducting cable without any training effects.

A superconducting parallel bifilar winding with one strand in each branch was tested and analyzed. When the superconducting parallel bifilar winding was quenched by fault current, it showed the so-called 'fast quench' and the results of experiment well explained the resistance curve. Also the experiments confirm that the current redistribution of magnetically coupled strands develops new normal zones after the initial quench, and that the size of normal zones at an early stage increases almost linearly as dI/dt increases. By these results, we could explain the resistance rise of superconducting parallel bifilar winding when it is quenched by the current above the critical value.

Like composite material. the coil winding pack of the KSTAR (Korea Superconducting Tokamak Advanced Research) consist of multiphase element such as metallic jacket material for protecting superconducting cable, vacuum pressurized imprepregnated (VPI) insulation, and corner roving filler. For jacket material, four CS (Central Solenoid) Coils, $5^{th}$ PF (Poloidal Field) Coil, and TF (Toroidal Field Coil) use Incoloy 908 and $6-7^{th}$ PF coil, Cold worked 316LN. In order to analyze the global behavior of large coil support structure with coil winding pack, it is required to replace the winding pack to monolithic matter with the equivalent mechanical properties, i.e. Young's moduli, shear moduli due to constraint of total nodes number and element numbers. In this study, Equivalent Young's moduli, shear moduli, Poisson's ratio, and thermal expansion coefficient were calculated for all coil winding pack using Finite Element Method.

The recent advancement in the power electronic technique has increased the use of induction motor fed by inverter using high-frequency switching devices. Also the tendency is toward larger size and higher voltage. Therefore, The IGBT (Insulated-Gate Bipolar Transistor) that is high switching frequency element has been using increase. But, The switching surge voltage was occurred by high switching frequency of inverter has appeared a voltage doubling in the motor input terminal due to mismatching of cable characteristic impedance and motor characteristic impedance. Actually, The Switching surge voltage became the major cause to occur the insulation failure by serious voltage stress in the stator winding of induction motor. The short during rise time of switching surge and cable length is increased, the maximum transient voltage seen at the motor terminals increases. In this paper, Analyzed switching surge transient voltage of power cable pulling is used EMTP(Electromagnetic Transient Program) at the induction motor terminal and in cable.

When a electric power cable is installed in the air for newly or exchanged working, it is necessary at all time to hold a constant tension for an overhead power cable. And also a pendanted power cable is an extreme job to have work in a high sky. For this reason, the objective of this paper developments working robot for preventing disaster that tension of cable installed automatically power cable to hold a constant. So the working robot works at all the time two tasks for mobil and tension it come into a inference between two tasks, control is difficult. Control methode needs to suppress inference of two tasks. In this paper, for installation of overhead power cable, the scheme and control methode of working robot is presented. the robot work at a same time tow tasks that have hold a constant tension of the power cable and move a constant place while unfasten a winding cable at a drum on a chassis. Working robot consist of three parts with mobile system, tension system and control part. As it is applied the feedback/feedforward control, methode of hybrid control is established to suppress that interference come into between two tasks. The simulation programs is made out using models of mobil and tension system, and a proposed controllers. In accordance with simulation, the model of each systems is discussed to make out proper. And also parameters of controllers is selected a suitable value and the driving performance of robot is evaluated.

This paper describes distribution characteristics of switching surge voltage in stator windings of induction motor driven by IGBT PWM inverter. To analyze the voltage distribution between the turns and coils of stator winding, equivalent circuit model of induction motor including cable was proposed and high frequency parameter is computed by using finite-element method (FEM). From the electro-magnetic transient program (EMTP) simulation of the whole system for induction motor, feeder cable, and PWM inverter, the variable effect on rising time of the inverter, cable length, and switching frequency on the voltage distribution is also presented. In order to experiment, an induction motor, 380[V], 50[HP], with taps from one phase are built to consider the voltage distribution so that these results can be helpful when filter was designed to remove high dv/dt.

In this paper the problems associated with the switching surge of PWM inverter devices were analysed. As the application of ASD for efficient speed control of AC rmtors is increased, so is the rrntor and ASD-related failure increased. In the industrial rmtor awlications, the introduction of PWM drives can sometmes cause insulation breakdown between the phase windings due to high transient voltage peak. The motor cable length combined with the high switching frequency becomes more sensitive issue for proper drive operation. Effects of the cable length and high switching frequency influence both on rmtor and inverter. When the insulation level of rmtor winding is low, the failure probability caused by high peak voltage and fast voltage rise times(dv/dt) is high. Voltage refloctions are simulated far rmtor capacities, ASD and rise times and are presented graphically. The filtering techniques are discussed to reduce the rmtor terminal overvoltage and dv/dt in inverter fed AC rrntor drive systems. We confirmed that the lower motar capacity and rmtar insulation level, the shorter switching time and cable length and the higrer the probability of insulation breakdown .kdown .

High-$T_c$ superconducting (HTSC) power cable is one of the interesting parts in power application using HTSC wire. However, its stacked structure makes the current distribution between conducting layers non-uniform due to difference between self inductances of conducting layers and mutual inductances between two conducting layers, which results in lower current transmission capacity of HTSC power cable. In this paper, the transport current distribution between conducting layers was investigated through the numerical analysis for the equivalent circuit of HTSC power cable with a shield layer, and compared with the case of without a shield layer. The transport current distribution due to the increase of the contact resistance in each layer was improved. However, its magnetization loss increased as the contact resistance increased. It was confirmed from the analysis that the shield layer was contributed to the improvement of the current distribution between conducting layers if the winding direction and the pitch length were properly chosen.

High temperature superconducting (HTS) magnets for large-capacity energy storage system need to be composed of toroid magnets with high energy density, low leakage magnetic fields, and easy installation. To realize such a large capacity of a toroid HTS magnet, an HTS cable with large current capacity would be preferred because of the limited DC link voltage and instantaneous high power required for compensation of the disturbance in the power grid. In this paper, the optimal operating strategies of the SMES for peak load reduction of the microgrid system were calculated according to the load variation characteristics, and the effect of compensation of the frequency change in microgrid with a SMES were also simulated. Based on the result of the simulation, key design parameters of SMES coil were presented for two cases to define the specification of the HTS cable with large current capacities for winding of HTS toroid coils, which will be need for development of the HTS cable as a future work.
