In a HTS transformer, the perpendicular component of magnetic flux density ($B_r$) applied to HTS tapes of pancake windings becomes larger than that of solenoid winding, thereby decreasing the critical current in the HTS tapes. This paper introduces several methods to reduce $B_r$ applied to the HTS tapes in the transformer with double pancake windings by changing winding arrangements and the relative permeability of flux diverters. We have conducted a winding design for a single-phase 1MVA 22.9kV/6.6kV HTS transformer. We observed a change of $B_r$ due to a variation of gap-length between the high voltage windings and the low voltage windings, reciprocal arrangement and an increase of the number of the high voltage pancake. We also observed a change of Br on the HTS tapes due to variation of the relative permeability of flux diverters placed between the high voltage winding and the low voltage winding. Finally, we have designed a 1MVA 22.9kV/6.6kV HTS transformer winding using suggested methods and calculated transformer parameters by the 3D finite element method.

On-line monitoring of fault discharge is an important approach for indicating the condition of electrical insulation of stator winding in high voltage motor. In this paper, several key aspects of on-line monitoring system are discussed, involving the characteristics of fault discharge of stator winding in high voltage motor, spectrum analysis of four simulation fault signals, feature extraction of internal fault discharge from apply voltage to breakdown. The study of the partial discharge activities allows to highlight the ageing stage in the winding fault under test. During the life of the winding insulation fault, the shape of PD signal change relating to the ageing stage. The ageing of stator winding insulation fault of high voltage motor is investigated based on the characteristics of partial discharge pulse distribution and statistical parameters, such as maximum, skewness and kurtosis using discrete wavelet trnasform coefficients.

Coercion transformer is commonly used in the electrical grid which in three phase of distribution system. The accident of the electrical grid is divided into a single, a double, a third line-to-ground faults and a double, a third line-to-line faults. A single line-to-ground fault accounts for nearly 75[%] among them. In this research, when a Superconducting Fault Current Limiters (SFCL) was applied to the three phase power system, operation in a single line-to-ground fault and limiting characteristics of fault current according to turns ratio of third winding were analyzed. When a single line-to-ground fault happened, secondary winding's circuit was open. Then third winding's circuit with a SFCL was closed. So fault current was limited by diverted circuit. At this time, we could find out that size of the limited fault current could be changed according to third winding rate. We confirmed that limiting operation of the fault current was carried out within one-period. These results will be utilized in adjusting the size of the SFCL.

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.

The separated three-phase flux-coupling type superconducting fault current limiter(SFCL) is composed of a series transformer and superconducting unit of the YBCO coated conductor. The primary and secondary coils in the transformer were wound in series each other through an iron core and the YBCO coated conductor was connected with secondary coil in parallel. In this paper, we investigated the current limiting characteristics through winding number of coil 2 and winding direction in the flux-coupling type SFCL. Through the analysis, it was shown that additive polarity condition and lower winding number of coil 2 have advantaged from the point of view of fault current limiting and burned of YBCO coated conductor.

During last years, hydrogen refueling infrastructure test and devices research for hydrogen station presented a significant growth consisting of the commercialization of fuel cell electric vehicles (FCEVs). However, we still have many challenges for making commercial hydrogen stations such as increased safety and cost reduction. This study demonstrates the low cost hydrogen storage tank (type 2) and effective winding method for high pressure hydrogen storage. We use numerical analysis to verify stress changes inside the wire according to the winding condition. Also liner size, winding wire size and wire tension were studied for the safety and cost down. Results show that the stress of winding wire decreased with increased winding angle and increased the liner diameter. On the other hand, the stress of winding wire increased according to the increased wire thickness and tension.

In this paper, we analyzed the current limiting characteristics according to increase of source voltage in the flux-lock type high-Tc superconducting fault current limiter (SFCL). The flux-lock type SFCL consisted of two coils, which were wound in parallel each other through an iron core, and high-Tc superconducting (HTSC) element connected with coil 2 in series. The flux-lock type SFCL has the characteristics better in comparison with the resistive type SFCL because the fault current in the flux-lock type SFCL can be divided into two coils by the inductance ratio of coil 1 and coil 2. The fault current limiting operation of the flux-lock type SFCL can be different due to winding direction of the two coils. The winding method where the decrease of linkage flux between two coils in the accident happens is called the subtractive polarity winding and the winding method in case of the increase of linkage flux is called the additive polarity winding. The fault current limiting experiments according to the source voltage were performed for these two winding methods. Through the comparison and the analysis of the experimental data, we confirmed that the quench time was shorter, irrespective of the winding direction as the source voltage increased and that the fault current and the HTSC's resistance increased as the amplitude of the source voltage increased. The additive polarity winding made the fast quench time and the lower resistance of HTSC element in comparison with the subtractive polarity winding. The fault current of the subtractive polarity winding was larger than that of the additive polarity winding. In conclusion, we found that the additive polarity winding reduced the burden of SFCL because the quench time was shorter and the fault current was smaller than those of the subtractive polarity winding.

Until now to analysis of LIM first winding current distribution is assumed to be finite sinusoidal current. But this method have demerits to learn the difference of LIM's characteristics which is produced by difference of winding method. So in this paper amodel of which period is the length core and air gap mmf of this winding current developed to fourier series, then mmf which contain air gap mmf is obtained this mmf is transformed to current sheet and the analysis result which are obtained by using sinusoidal first current and proposed method are compared.
