The fault current limiting characteristics of three-phase transformer type superconducting fault current limiter (SFCL), which consisted of three-phase primary and secondary windings wound on E-I iron core, one high-TC superconducting (HTSC) element connected with the secondary winding of one phase and another HTSC element connected in parallel with other two secondary windings of two phases, were analyzed. Unlike other three-phase transformer type SFCLs with three HTSC elements, three-phase transformer type SFCL using double quench has the merit to perform fault current limiting operation for three-phase ground faults with two HTSC elements. To verify its proper three-phase ground fault current limiting operation, three-phase ground faults such as single-line ground, double-line ground and triple-line ground faults were generated in three-phase simulated power system installed with three-phase transformer type SFCL using double quench. From analysis of its fault current limiting characteristics based on tested results, three-phase transformer type SFCL using double quench was shown to be effectively operated for all three-phase ground faults.

This paper deals with the quench characteristic analysis in high-Tc superconducting synchronous motor of five to six hundred watts capacity. First, the magnetic field distribution and ac losses of high-Tc superconducting motor with the additive flux damper circuit was derived and computer simulation was performed with the equivalent model using FEM. The simulation results show that the quench state lasts for about 0.3 seconds.

일반적으로 Bi계 고온초전도선재(HTS Tape)는 저온초전도선재(LTS Tape)에 비해서 비열이 수백 배 이상 크므로 열적으로 상당히 안정한 성격을 가진다. 그러므로 이러한 HTS Tape를 TQ(Thermal Quench)시켜주는 일은 매우 어렵게 되는데, 일반적으로 HTS Tape를 이용한 초전도응용 분야에서 TQ를 이용한 스위칭 동작이 매우 중요하므로, 응응에 앞서 이에 관한 연구가 반드시 이루어져야 할 것이다. 본 연구에서는 Bi-2223 Short Sample의 TQ 특성을 실험하여 온도특성과 전압특성 등을 비교하였으며, 또한 이론적으로 HTS Tape를 TQ시켜주기 위한 열량과 실제 실험에서 사용된 열량의 값을 비교하였다.

In this paper, we analyzed quench characteristics of field windings using 2 dimensional analysis. The quench origin was assumed to take place at the inner most point in the mid-plane of the coil. The temperature distribution was numerically calculated on the coil cross section using FDM analysis, and was used to estimate the normal zone resistance of the coil. Finally, we obtained voltage current characteristics of the quenched winding coils.

In superconductor power systems, a quench detector can misrecognize oscillation about current or voltage control as a quench. So, for the correct detection of a quench, it seems need to guarantee a smooth control of current or voltage. In this paper, we have studied a control function and control parameter for smooth control of current or voltage.

Superconducting wire is quenching as soon as transport current exceeded the critical current value. However transport current exceeded the critical current value, quench is not generated immediately. In this paper, the results of the theoretical study for time delay of quench phenomenon are described.

The present paper clarified mechanism of quench crack formation in high carbon steel dur-ing quenching, and, in order to prevent the quench crack, proposed two basic guides in alloy design of high carbon tool steel. They are to raise Ms temperature of high carbon tool steel by addition of alloying elemen-ts such as Al and Co, and to decrease grain size of the carbon tool steel by addition of alloying elements of Al, B, Ti, Zr, and V, and by grain-refining heat treatment.

A serious problem in using YBCO films for fault current limiter is inhomogeneities caused by imperpect manufacturing. So simultaneous quenches are a difficult problem which elements for current limiting are connected in series for increasing voltage ratings. We investigated extended electric field - current characteristics for current limiting element of YBCO film when 0-130mT magnetic field is applied. And quench characteristics were investigated in over all element and between elements of YBCO films. From the experiments, it was shown that applied magnetic fields using solenoid coil induced uniform quench distribution for over all stripes and simultaneous quench in all elements for current limiting of YBCO film was realized.

We present current limiting properties of 1.2kV/70A superconducting fault current limiter based on YBCO thin films. This is consisted of 6 wafers (3 parallel ${\times}$ 2 serial connection) with 4 inch-diameter YBCO thin film. The quench current Iq of the switching elements vary between 33.9 and 35.6 A. Within the difference of 0.5 A in the sum of quench current Iq in two stacks, the serial connection of the stacks showed the simultaneous quench behavior in applied power of 1.2 kV /70 A.
