We developed the Centrifugal Forming Process(CFP) for HTS tube fabrication. The self-designed equipment for CFP is devided into 3 main parts depending on its role and functions. the melting part by heating of high inductive frequency, centrifugal forming part for the tube and efficient microstructure control of Bi2212 phase and molding part for tube detachment after heat treatment. In this paper we will introduce self designed Centrifugal Forming Process for HTS tube fabrication and discuss about the results related mold materials in terms of high Tc superconductor.

The superconducting powders in $YBa_2Cu_3O_{7-x}$ and Bi-Pb-Sr-Ca-Cu-O system were easily prepared from water in oil type emulsion by loading each cation into the aqueous phase. In $YBa_2Cu_3O_{7-x}$ system, the superconducting orthorhombic phase was formed by calcining at $750^{\circ}C$ for 10h in $O_2$. The size of the superconducting phase powders was submicron. The density of the sintered specimen using this powders was about 95% of the theoretical density and the resistance sharply decreases at about 90K, In Bi-Pb-Sr-Ca-Cu-O system the low Tc phase($(Bi, Pb)_2Sr_2Ca_1Cu_2O_y$) was formed by calcining at $800^{\circ}C$ for 10h in a low oxygen partial pressure of 1/20 atm The shape of clacined powder is thin plate of which size is about $2\mu\textrm{m}$ and thickness is smaller than $\mu\textrm{m}$. It was observed that the high Tc phase ($(Bi, Pb)_2Sr_2Ca_2Cu_3O_y$) was formed by sintering at $850^{\circ}C$ for 30h in oxygen pressure of 1/20 atm without intermediary grinding. The above sintered sample exhibited superconductivity with a Tc(zero)=105K.

Superconducting current lead is one of the promising applications of the oxide high-Tc superconductors, because they have the advantage of decreasing heat conduction to low temperature region, comparing with a conventional cooper alloy lead. High critical current density is a key factor for the applications such as current lead. $(Bi,Pb)_{2}Sr_{2}Ca_{2}Cu_{3}O_{x}$ high Tc superconductor hase been investigated in terms of critical current density. Bi-2223 superconducting current lead made by CIP and solid state sintering process. Bi-2223 current lead that heat treated at $836\;^{\circ}C$ for 240 h in 1/13 $PO_2$ had over $500\;A/cm^2$ of critical current density at 77K. We knew that the superconducting properties of tube type current leads were better than rods type of them. And we investigated the relation of Bi-2223 formation and heat treatment condition by XRD and SEM analysis.

This paper deals with the characteristics of persistent current switch (rCS) system fer applied HTS magnet system. To apply the high-Tc superconductor in superconducting machine such as motror, generator, MAGLEV, MRI, and NMR, the study on high-Tc superconducting persistent current mode must be performed. In this experiment, the PCS system consists otd superconducting magnet, PCS and magnet power supply. The superconducting magnet was fabricated by connecting four double pancake coils (DPCs) in series. The PCS was inductive double pancake coil type and heated up by the SUS 303L tape heater. The optimal length of PCS was calculated and thermal quench state of PCS was simulated by using finite element method(FEM) and compared with experimental results. The optimal energy to normalize the PCS was calculated and introduced. Finally, the persistent current was observed with respect to various ramping up rate and magnitude of charging current.

It is certain that the power quality will be very important at 21 century. Especially instant power shortage or power fault will occur serious problems. Accordingly stable power supplication is very technical problem. There are many way to make stable supplication as auxiliary generator, but this is long time delay complement. To solve this problem the superconducting magnetic energy storage is introduced. High Tc superconductor is more commercial.

This paper presents a numerical analysis of transient magnetic diffusion in a melt-cast-processed BSCCO-2212 tube subjected to sinusoidal applied fields. The nonlinear f-$\lrcorner$ relation obtained by experiments in liquefied $N_2$ is used to find the magnetic diffusion coefficient. The magnetic flux density, shield current density and p-J$^2$ loss are considered. According to the result of this study, the shielding current density is varied with external applied field and coordinate in the superconductor tube. The result of analysis can be used to explain the response of a Supercon -ductor-Shield-Core-Reactor subjected to sinusoidal applied fields.

Gd1Ba2Cu3O9-x has been found to be a high Tc superconductor with a transitiion onset at 91K and zero resistance achieved at 87K. The structure as determined from x-ray diffraction is orthorhombic, with lattice constants b=3.842$\pm$0.002$\AA$, b=3.895$\pm$0.003$\AA$, and c=11.684$\pm$0.007$\AA$. The structural similarities between the Gd1Ba2Cu3O9-x compound and the well-studied single phase perovskite, Y1Ba2Cu3O9-x are discussed. A correlation between the observed x-ray spectrum and the effect of oxygen deficiencies in several of the unit cell planes is also discussed.

The electric properties in YBCO superconductor was studied. In the measurement of current-voltage characteristics, a voltage across the superconducting sample was observed on applying an external magnetic field. The voltage increases with increase in applied magnetic flux, but it becomes constant at about $10^{-2}T$. The voltage continues to appear the removal of the magnetic field. The appearance of the voltage is ascribed to the trapping of magnetic flux. Depending on the direction of applied magnetic flux less than $2.5{\times}10^{-5}T$, the voltage in the magnetized sample increases or decreases.

According to spread volume of B(BiPbCuO) layer, composition ratio and each stage of sintering process, we studied stability of high Tc superconductor phase and generation and growth movement of superconducting phase. The dual layer composed of SrCaCuO and BiPbCuO compound were prepared to develop the Bi-2223 superconductor[108K] through interaction and diffusion during sintering process. The dual layer samples were sintered at 830.deg. C for 0-210 hours. From the result, the optimum conditions were : spread volume(A:B=1:0.6), sintering time(210h) and composition ratio(A:S $r_{2}$C $a_{2}$C $u_{2}$- $O_{x}$, B:B $i_{1.9}$P $b_{0.5}$C $u_{3}$ $O_{y}$) at 830.deg. C.. C.C.C.

Bi-Sr-Ca-Cu-O superconducting system has both the low and high Tc phases. We added Pb and sintered for 200hrs. in OS12T atmosphere in order to get the superconductor above critical temperature 100K. Superconducting properties of the Bi(Pb)SrCaCuO system doped Sb were also investigated. When Sb of 0.1mol is added, the sintering time becomes shorter than that doped Pb only. We could get the critical temperature 102K at the samples sintered for 24hrs. and 109K for 210hrs.
