According to the increasing power demand for the future construction of many underground cables will be required. However, construction of new ducts for power cables will be more difficult. Therefore, research work for realizing the high temperature superconducting(HTS) cable has advanced, where the development of electrical insulating system at cryogenic temperature is one of the major researches. For an electrical insulation design of HTS cable, it is important to understand not only breakdown but also partial discharge and dielectric loss($tan{\delta}$) in liquid nitrogen/paper composite insulation system. In this paper, we investigated breakdown characteristics in liquid nitrogen/paper composite insulation system for the application to HTS cable. And, we studied the breakdown characteristics of the multi-layer and butt gap of the insulation papers in liquid nitrogen. Also, we measured dielectric loss($tan{\delta}$) of the mini-model Cable made of TERLAM IPP.

Energy load of building affected by insulation performance of building's exterior. and insulation system can be classify interior insulation, exterior insulation, sandwich insulation according to install place of insulation. but within interior insulation system, corner wall and the cross outer wall-slab insulation part may occur thermal bridges. And then, within exterior insulation system is more superior insulation performance than interior insulation, but it has difficult to apply, easily broken at high building because of strong wind load. And also difficult to maintenance exterior insulation system. So, in this study, to found requirement performance of cast-in-place sandwich insulation system that is superior insulation performance and easy construction and maintenance. requirement performance of cast-in-place sandwich insulation system is 1) To avoid thermal bridges in the insulation performance, 2) Both sides concrete wall can be composite action in the structural performance. Because of this study, can develops cast-in-place sandwich insulation system and this insulation system contribute to improve insulation performance of apartment-house and high building.

The purpose of this research is to obtain experimental data for developing a structural design of an external insulation system by evaluating the shear performance of a composite insulation system according to the adhesive type. The shear performance of the composite insulation system was experimentally evaluated by considering a simultaneous placement method, full and spot/edge coverage using adhesive mortar. As a result of the test, the shear strength of simultaneous placement and full coverage method was almost similar, the spot/edge coverage method was about 80% of them. Also, the simultaneous placement method is considered to be constructively advantageous when applied as an external insulation system to a high-rise building compared to using an adhesive mortar.

A liquid nitrogen ($LN_2$) is usually used to be a coolant and insulant for a HTS coil system. HTS wires for a superconducting apparatus may be surrounded by gaseous nitrogen ($GN_2$) due to film boiling generated by a quench or voids occurred by electrical breakdown. The increased maximum electric field intensity at $GN_2$ may result in the degradation of dielectric strength of a HTS coil system. In this paper, a study on the dielectric characteristics of a composite insulation system composed of $LN_2$ and $GN_2$ is performed. A sphere-to-plane electrode system made with stainless steel is used to perform the experiments under AC and lightning impulse voltage condition. A sphere electrode is surrounded by $GN_2$ and a plane electrode is immersed into $LN_2$ to conduct dielectric experiments with a composite insulation system. The dielectric experiments are performed according to the level of $LN_2$ from the plane electrode to a sphere electrode. It is found that the dielectric characteristics of a composite insulation system are dependent on the level of $LN_2$ and the field utilization factor of an electrode system.

In this paper, we researched breakdown characteristics of paper/liquid nitrogen composite insulation system for application of a high temperature superconducting cable. And, we have studied the AC breakdown performance of paper/ice composite insulating system immersed in liquid nitrogen. The electric strength in this paper/ice composite system is higher than that of paper/liquid nitrogen system. Furthermore this system shows a self-healing type breakdown behavior. Among the many kinds of liquid to be immersed and frozen to the ice, deionized water gives the highest electric breakdown strength. The paper/ice composite insulation system is thought to be one of good candidate for the electrical insulating system at cryogenic temperature.

Epoxy/micro-sized alumina composite was prepared and the effects of alumina content on the electrical and mechanical properties were investigated in order to develop an insulation material for gas insulated switchgear (GIS). Nano-sized alumina (average particle size: 30 μm) was also incorporated into the epoxy/micro-sized alumina composite. An electrical insulation breakdown strength test was carried out in sphere-sphere electrodes and the data were estimated by Weibull statistical analysis. Tensile strength was measured at a crosshead speed of 10 mm/min using a universal testing machine. Alumina content was varied from 0 wt% to 70 wt%.). As micro-sized alumina content increased, insulation breakdown strength increased until 40 wt% alumina content and decreased after that content. The tensile strength of a neat epoxy system was 82.2 MPa and that value for 60 wt% alumina content was 91.8 MPa, which was 111.7% higher than inthe neat epoxy system. The insulation breakdown strength of micro-sized alumina (60 wt%)/nano-sized alumina (1 phr) glycerol diglycidyl ether (GDE) (1 phr) composite was 54.2 MPa, which was 116% higher than the strength of the system without nano-sized alumina.
