The high acceleration voltage system used in scanning electron microscope were designed and manufactured to test its stability. The Cockcroft-Walton circuits are used both in the cathode voltage up to -30 kV and in the Wehnelt cylinder of -2 kV. The operating voltage of 6 V was applied to the heating of the filament. The wave forms which are formed in the second leg of the high voltage transformer were observed in the oscilloscope with 2 V of DC input. When the high voltages were in the range between 5 kV and 12 kV, the highest value of the stabilities of the generated voltages was obtained as 0.002%.

The emission test a domestic fabricated cathode is conducted using an easy-replaceable-emitter-type test bench. A simple cylindrical button type cathode is dropped vertically into a cathode cup holder. The cathode is heated by a tungsten wire heater located around the cup holder. The cathode temperature is measured by an optical pyrometer. A high voltage pulse power supply gives the anode-cathode gap voltage up to 20 kV with the pulse width of 15 us. The emitted current from the cathode is captured at a faraday cup and is measured using current transformer and oscilloscope. The test bench is installed in the vacuum chamber with easy access door and, therefore, the cathode can be easily replaceable. We confirmed the emission current density of $15A/cm^2$ and $80A/cm^2$ with a domestic fabricated B-type cathode and a Scandate cathode, respectively. The detailed test result for the cathode will be presented.

In the study the volume resistivity Characteristics of epoxy resin using nanocomposites, nano-comosites are made from insulating material epoxy resin using for power transformer equipment and molding several devices as changing amount of addition of diameter 12 [nm] $SiO_2$, we measured volume resistivity of nano-composites by High Resistance Meter(4329A). As the result of measurement, we have seen the epoxy resin using 1.6 [wt%] nanocomposites was the highest measured at the volume resistivity, and using 0.4 [wt%] nanocomposites was highest stabilized than others according to variable temperature properties.

This Paper deals with the short circuit tests of the three-Phase DC reactor type fault current limiter (FCL) in changing of turns ratio of transformers. The experiment of this paper is a preliminary step to develop the FCL's faculties for an application to high voltage transmission line. So, superconducting coil was made of Nb-Ti, low temperature superconductor, and the ratings of the power system of experimental circuit are 400V/7A class. A three-phase DC reactor type FCL consists of three transformers, six diodes, one superconducting coil and one cryostat. The important point of experimental analysis is transient period, the operating lagging time of circuit breaker. As the results of the experiment, the values are referred to the limitation rate about 77% and 90% when the turns ratio of transformer was 1:1 and 2:1 respectively.

To verify the feasibility of bifilar winding type superconducting fault current limiter (SFCL) using BSCCO tape, two types of magnets were fabricated and tested by short-circuit in this research. Even if the FCL using high Tc superconducting (HTS) tape has zero resistance in normal state, it needs to be wound as a bifilar winding for zero inductance. Solenoid type and pancake type bifilar winding magnets are designed and fabricated with the same length of BSCCO tape. The test system consists of AC power supply, transformer, fault switch, load and bifilar winding magnet. The applied AC voltages during fault duration, 0.1s, were from 0.5V to 20V. The test results without bifilar winding magnet were compared with those with each type magnets. The test results include voltage against magnet, transport current and generated resistance curve. Thermal stability, the recovery time, was studied from the results of two type magnets. The pancake type was the most effective to limit fault current but the solenoid type was thermally the most stable. From this research, short-circuit characteristics of the two types were obtained.

In this paper, nano composites material is produced by adding MgO with particle size of 5 [nm] into epoxy resign using as insulating material of power transformer apparatus and molding part to study the volume resistivity of nano composites used epoxy. We measured the volume resistivity using the High Resistance Meter(4329A) depending on changing the amount of addition and temperature in this experience. In result, we have confirmed that 1.0, 3.0, 5.0 and 10.0 [wt%] as about 2.9, 7.6, 7.5 and 6.1 times increased than virgin. Therefore, the characteristic of volume resistivity was relatively stable as specimen by added 3.0 [wt%] than the others.

YBCO thin films have good characteristics for current limiting materials due to compact size and high current carrying capability. But the irregularities and the extreme thin thickness of YBCO films cause some difficulties in simultaneous quench and thermal shock protection. In order to solve these problems, vertical magnetic field generated from solenoid coil was applied to the YBCO element. And also to minimize the inductance caused by the serial connection of magnetic field source with superconducting elements, magnetic field source was separated from the power lines adapting protective current transformer. In this study, electric field-current (E-I) and quench characteristics of YBCO films were analyzed both by electrical measuring method and observations of bubble propagation. From the experiment results, it was revealed that the magnetic fields generated by surrounding coil could induce the uniform quench distribution for all stripes of current limiting units and finally simultaneous quenches were realized in all serial connection of YBCO elements. In addition, the separation of magnetic field source form electrical network could be good solution for simultaneous quench of YBCO films without any unnecessary effect caused by serial connection.

For the $Y-Y-{\Delta}$ transformers operated in parallel, there exist two kinds of the circulating currents i.e. between the tanks and between the banks of the delta side. The proposed algorithm estimates the two circulating currents in the transformers in parallel in an ultra high voltage system. As the circulating current between the tanks is 90 deg out of phase of the load current, it is estimated by decomposing the line current into the component 90 deg out of phase of the load current. The circulating current between the banks in the delta side is estimated from the delta winding current and the line currents. The performance of the proposed algorithm is investigated when the impedances of the two transformer tanks are different or the taps of the on-load tap changer of the transformers are mismatched temporarily. Test results indicate that the algorithm can estimate the two kinds of the circulating currents successfully for both cases.

본 연구에서는 변압기의 권선간 전계 및 절연안전율 예측알고리즘을 개발하였으며, 이를 활용하여 극초고압 변압기의 절연구조개선 연구를 수행하였다. 개발된 알고리즘을 사용하면 한 번의 기본모델의 수치해석 결과만을 이용하여 다양한 권선간 거리 및 고체절연물의 개수 변화에 따른 전계 및 절연안전율의 예측이 가능하다. 본 알고리즘을 극초고압 변압기 주권선부 개선에 적용시킨 결과, 권선간 고체 절연물 개수를 조절하면 절연신뢰성 저하없이 주권선부 거리를 단축시킬 수 있음을 확인하였다. 또한, 본 예측 알고리즘의 활용가능성을 검증하고자 개선 모델의 절연안전율을 수치해석적 방법으로 계산하여 이를 예측 결과와 비교하였다. 그 결과, 본 예측 알고리즘으로 계산된 결과는 수치해석적 방법에 의한 결과에 비해 약 $1{\sim}2%$ 정도의 작은 차이가 발생하는 것으로 확인되었다. 따라서 본 연구를 통하여 개발된 전계분포 및 절연안전율 예측기법을 실제 설계에 적용할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.
