For the fabrication of HTS power cable, multifilamentary Bi-2223/Ag tapes have been prepared using the powder-in-tube (PIT) process. After final heat treatment, these tapes have $I_{c}$ value of 43A, and$ J_{c}$ value of $28,000A/\textrm{cm}^2$(77K, 0T). Prototype 1000A class multistrand conductor(length~1m) was fabricated using these tapes(length~300m). This multistrand conductor was impregnated with low-temperature epoxy. The transportation properties of prototype 1000A class multistrand conductor has been evaluated at 77K, and yielding a current capacity up to 1200A.A.A.

The water-gas shift reaction is the subsequent step using steam for hydrogen enrichment and H₂/CO ratio-controlled syngas from gasification. In this study, a water-gas shift reaction was performed using syngas from an RPF gasification system. The water-gas shift using a catalyst was performed in a laboratory-scale tube reactor with a high temperature shift (HTS) and a low temperature shift (LTS). The effects of the reaction temperature, steam/carbon ratio, and flow rate on H₂ production and CO conversion were investigated. The operating temperature was 250-400℃ for the HTS system and 190-220℃ for the LTS system. Steam/carbon ratios were between 1.5 and 3.5, and the composition of reactant was CO : 40 vol%, H₂ : 25 vol%, and CO₂ : 25 vol%. The CO conversion and H₂ production increased as the reaction temperature and steam/carbon ratio increased. The CO conversion and H₂ production decreased as the flow rate increased due to reduced retention time in the catalyst bed.

High-temperature Superconductor(HTS) tubes were fabricated in term of different processing variables such as preheating temperature, speed of mold rotation and cooling rate by centrigugal forming method. For powder melting by induction the optimum range of melting temperatures and preheating temperature were $1050{\circ}C{\sim}1100{\circ}C\;and\;550{\circ}C\;for\;30\; min$, respectively The mould roating speed was 1000 rpm. A tube was annealed at $840 {\circ}C$ for 72 hours in oxygen atmosphere. The plate-like grains were well developed along the loafing direction and typical grain size was about more than $40{\mu}$. It was found that Ic values increased with increasing the Preheating temperature and speed of mold rotation. While Ic decreased with increasing the cooling rate. The measured Ic in $50mm{\times}70mm{\times}2.5mm$ tube was about 896 Amp.

This paper deals with the computation of the current limiting behavior of high-temperature superconducting (HTS) modules for the superconducting fault current limiter (SFCL). The SFCL module consists of a monofilar type BSCCO-2212 tube and a shunt coil made of copper or brass. The shunt coil is connected to the monofilar superconducting tube in parallel. Through analysis of the quench behavior of the monofilar component with shunt coils, it is achieved to drive an equivalent circuit equation from the experimental circuit structure. In order to analyze the quench behavior of the SFCL module, we derived a partial differential equation technique. Inductance of the monofilar component and the impedance of the shunt coil are calculated by Bio-Savart and Ohm's formula, respectively. We computed the quench behavior using the calculated values, and compared the results with experimental results for the quench characteristics of a component. The results of computation and test agreed well each other, and it was concluded that the analytic result could be applied effectively to design of the distribution-level SFCL system.

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.

Bi-2223/Ag HTS wires have been fabricated by the PIT(powder in tube)process. Intermediate annealing was carried out to increase the homogenization and uniformity of the superconducting filaments embedded in the silver matrix during the deformation process that is important to sustain the engineering critical current density in long superconducting wire. Intermediate annealing act to release the deformation hardening of the superconducting wires during drawing process. Rolling parameters were investigated to roll the superconducting tapes with uniform thickness, width and winding tensions. Critical current of 60 m long superconducting tapes was measured 54.3 A continuously after final sintering heat treatment. The phase analysis of Bi-2223/Ag superconducting tapes are examined by the XRD.

Various Ag ratio from 0.22 to 0.42 of Ag tubes for PID (powder-In-Tube) process were used to investigate the workability and to prevent breakage of filaments during drawing. In order to find proper heat treatment condition, we investigated micro-structure of Bi-2212/Ag wires by using differential thermal analysis, XRD and SEM. The effect of atmosphere on the peritectic decomposition temperature of precursor was investigated. The shape of grain was observed by SEM to investigate Bi-2212 phase formation in filaments. The higher of Ag ratio of mono filament had the higher critical current density, Jc. The wire with 0.42 of Ag ratio showed 7,886 A/cm2 of Jc at 77K.

Round shape Bi2212/Ag is isotropic and can be fabricated Rutherford cable to transport high current. Bi2212/Ag round wires with various Ag ratio were fabricated using powder-in-tube process. Double stacked 385 (55\times$7) filamentary wire of various wire diameter was heat-treated at various melting temperature. Wires which have Ag ratio of 0.3 and 0.42 of Ag tube for monofilament show similar critical current density. As average filament diameter decreases from 33 to 16 \mu$m, critical current density of wires increase, and in case of 16 ${\mu}m$ and $T_m$ 890$^{\circ}C$, critical current density was 2,062 $A/mm^2$ at 4.2 K, 0 T.
