The analysis of fault current limiting characteristics according to variation of fault current level in the integrated three-phase flux-lock type superconducting fault current limiter (SFCL), which consisted of three-phase flux-lock reactor wound on an iron core with the same turn's ratio between coil 1 and coil 2 for each single phase, was performed. To analyze the current limiting characteristics of this integrated three-phase flux-lock type SFCL, the short circuit experiments was carried out the various three-phase faults such as the single line-to-ground fault, the double line-to-ground fault, the triple line-to-ground fault. From the experimental results, the fault current limiting characteristic was improved according to increase of fault current level.

In this paper, we investigated the quench characteristics of high-Tc superconducting(HTSC) elements in the integrated three-phase flux-lock type superconducting fault current limiter(SFCL) according to fault types such as the single-line-to-ground fault, the double-line-to-ground fault, the line-to-line fault and the triple-line-to-ground fault. The integrated three-phase flux-lock type SFCL is an upgrade version of single-phase flux-lock type SFCL. The structure of the integrated three-phase flux-lock type SFCL consisted of a three-phase flux-lock reactor wound on an iron core with the ratio of the same turn between coil 1 and coil 2 in each phase. When the SFCL is under the normal condition, the flux generated in the iron core is zero because the flux generated between two coils of each single phase is canceled out. Therefore, the SFCL's impedance is zero, and the SFCL has negligible influence on the power system. However, if a fault occurs in any single one of three phases, the flux generated in the iron core is not zero any more. The flux makes HTSC elements of all phases to quench irrespective of the fault type, which reduces the current in fault phase as well as the current of sound phase. It was obtained that the fault current limiting characteristics of the suggested SFCL were dependent on the quench characteristics of HTSC elements in all three phases.

This paper propose a new 3D SVM method for three-phase four wire inverter for fault isolation at a single line ground fault. The available switching combination for isolation of a single line ground fault was analyzed. Using this method, voltage vector diagrams according to each switching combination were classified according to various ground fault situations, and 3D SVM method was performed by generating command for fault isolation. The proposed methods are mathematically analyzed and verified by PSIM simulation.

We investigate the comparison of fault current characteristics between the separates three-phase flux-lock type superconducting fault current limiter(SFCL) and integrated three-phase flux-lock type superconducting fault current limiter(SFCL). The single-phase flux-lock type SFCL consists of two coils. The primary coil is wound in parallel to the secondary coil on an iron core and superconducting elements are connected to secondary coil in series. Superconducting elements are used by the YBCO coated conductor. The separated three-phase flux-lock type SFCL consists of single-phase flux-phase type SFCL in each phase. But the integrated three-phase flux-lock type SFCL consists of three-phase flux-reactors wound on an iron core. Flux-reactor consists of the same turn's ratio between coil 1 and coil 2 for each single phase. To compare the current limiting characteristics of the separated three-phase flux-lock type SFCL and integrated three-phase flux-lock type SFCL, the short circuit experiments are carried out fault condition such as the single line-to-ground fault. The experimental result shows that fault current limiting characteristic of the separated three-phase flux-lock type SFCL was better than integrated three-phase flux-lock type SFCL. And the integrated three-phase flux-lock type SFCL has an effect on sound phase.

We investigated the quench characteristics of the flux-lock type superconducting fault current limiter (SFCL) integrated three-phase according to fault types such as the single-line-to-ground fault, the double-line-to-ground fault and the three-line-to-ground. The structure of integrated three-phase flux-lock type SFCL consists of single core which have three-phase flux-lock reactors. The superconducting elements connected sound phase as well as fault phase happened to quenching. Therefore we conformed that the superconducting elements were dependent.

We investigated the quench characteristics in integrated three-phase flux-lock type superconducting fault current limiter (SFCL), which consisted of three-phase flux-lock reactor wound on one iron core with the same turn's ratio between coil 1 and coil 2 for each single phase. To study the quench characteristics of the SFCL, the experiments was performed on various fault type such as the single line-to-ground fault, the double line-to-ground fault, the triple line-to-ground fault. From the experimental results, the generated point of element resistances was different on various fault type.

We investigated the fault current characteristics of the separates three-phase flux-lock type superconducting fault current limiter(SFCL) according to the variation of inductances. The single-phase flux-lock type SFCL consists of two coils. The primary coil is wound in parallel to the secondary coil on an iron core. And superconductor is series connected on secondary coil. Superconductor is using the YBCO coated conductor. The separated three-phase flux-lock type SFCL consists of single-phase flux-phase type SFCL in each phase. To analyze the current limiting characteristics of a three-phase flux-lock type SFCL, the short circuit experiments were carried out fault such as the triple line-to-ground fault. The experimental result shows that fault current limiting characteristics of additive polarity winding was better than subtractive polarity winding and when the inductances of coil 2 was lower, resistances of YBCO CC was more generated.

The superconducting fault current limiter (SFCL) applied into the neural line of a power system, which can limit the unsymmetrical fault current from the single-line ground fault or the double-line ground fault, was reported to be the effective application location of the SFCL in a power system. However, the limiting operation for the symmetrical fault current like the triple line-ground fault is not effective because of properties of the balanced three-phase system. In this paper, the limiting method of the symmetrical fault current in a power system with a SFCL applied into neutral line was suggested. Through the short-circuit experiments of the three-phase fault types for the suggested method, the fault current limiting and recovery characteristics of the SFCL in the neutral line were analyzed and the effectiveness of the suggested method was described.

Superconducting fault current(SFCLs) are expected to improve not only reliability but also stability of real power systems. The analysis on the single line-to-ground fault current of the integrated three phase flux-lock type SFCL, which consists of three flux-lock reactor wound on an iron core in each single phase and three YBCO thin films, was investigated in current limiting operating characteristics. We compared additive polarity winding with the subtractive one in the flux lock reactor. Its turns ratio each phase between the primary and the secondary coils is 63:42. When a single line-to-ground fault occurred in any phase, the peak value of line current in the fault phase of the additive polarity winding increased up to 31.44[A] during first-half cycle. On the other hand, the peak value in the subtractive polarity winding increased up to 81.77[A] under the same conditions. This is because the current flow between the primary and the secondary windings becomes to be additive or subtractive in each winding direction. We confirmed that the current limiting behavior in the additive polarity winding was more effective for a single-line-to ground fault.
