현재 시대에는 자원의 부족으로 인하여 원재료의 낮은 등급을 정제하는 것이 중요하다. 자기분리 기술이 산업 계 원재료들의 정제에 적용되는 것이 기대된다. 예를 들면 고순도의 유리나 절연체를 제작하기 위한 원재료에서 철산화물의 제거는 매우 중요하다. 자기를 띠는 입자들과 자기분리 필터 와이어 사이에 발생하는 끌어당기는 힘은 다른 자기분리와 비교 할 때 초전도 자기분리에서 훨씬 강하다. 초전도 마그네트를 이용하여 높은 자기장을 형성하기 때문에 일반 자기분리의 자성 입자 포획력을 능가한다. 본 연구에서는 습식 조건에서 산업계 원재료로부터 철계 산화물을 제거하기 위해서 초전도 자기문리를 사용하여 실험하였다. 실험에 사용된 시료는 유리원료로 사용되는 2종류로 시료A는 0.1 ~ 0.3 mm의 평균입도를 갖는 모래형상이며 시료B는 평균입도 0.03 ~ 0.1 mm의 고운모래 형태이다. 자기분리를 위해 상온에서 100 mm의 직경을 갖는 600 mm의 높이의 전도냉각형 Nb-Ti 초전도 마그네트를 사용하였으며 시료를 위에서 공급하고 아래로 배출되도록 수직형으로 설치하였다. 시료 500 g과 증류수 2 L를 혼합하여 교반시키고 6 T의 자기장 하에서 실험하였다. 자기분리 필터는 초전도 마그네트에서의 자기장의 분포를 해석하여 디자인하였다. 자기분리 필터의 자기적 특성을 알아보기 위해 진동시료형 자력계를 사용하였다. 산업계 원재료는 X선 형광분석기를 사용하여 성분을 분석하였다. 산업계 원재료를 이용하여 초전도 자기분리를 실시한 결과 철계 산화물은 시료A에서 43.5 %제거되었으며 시료B에서는 77.3%제거되었다.

In this research, the development of fabrication technique of bulk YBaCuO superconductors for application was studied. In fluence of $BaZrO_3$ addition on magnetization characteristics of thermal pyrolysis textured YBaCuO superconductor was investigated. Fine $BaZrO_3$ particle were dispersed within the textured YBaCuO matrix by means of the thermal pyrolysis processing. Magnetic levitation force for YBaCuO superconductors were obtained using Nd-B-Fe permanent magnet, at 77 K and at the magnetic field from 0 to 5.3 K gauss. In the unadded superconductor and 5 wt% $BaZrO_3$ addition, anomalous magnetization behavior, which is characterized by the intermediate magnetic field, was observed at 77 K. Critical current density was about few hundreds $A/cm^2$ and the magnetic characteristics increased slightly by addition of $BaZrO_3$ powder. Maximum magnetic force was obtained in the YBaCuO superconducting bulk with 3 wt.% $BaZrO_3$ addition.

In order to improve the surface uniformity and the conduction properties of the fabricated YBCO thick films, a system that applies alternating field vertically to the EPD field has been developed for the first time and applied to the electrophoretic deposition process. The applied alternating electric field caused a force to be exerted on each YBCO particle and resulted in a shaking of the particle in the direction of applied electric field, accomplishing a uniform particle orientation. The usual commercial electrical power was used for the vertically applied alternating voltage and the induced electric field was 25-120 V/cm at 60Hz. The thick film fabricated by the method developed in this paper showed better surface uniformity without crack and porosity and improved film characteristics such as critical temperature ($T_{c,zero}$ : 90 K) and critical current density ($2354\;A/cm^2$). Therefore, it is expected that the shaky-aligned electrophoretic deposition method can be used to fabricate superconductor films through a simpler process and at less expense.

The electrophoretic deposition method using the suspension solution with additives under the electric potential was applied for the fabrication of YBCO superconductor wire. This method was able to simplify the fabrication facilities, and produce an uniform and dense thick film. To improve the critical current density of deposited films, the additive PEGs(Poly Ethylene Glycole) with the molecular weight of 600, 1000 and 3400, were used as chemical binders for the suspension solution. The organic additive PEG showed better effects to the properties of YBCO superconductor wire. The PEG improved the adhesion between superconductor particles and suppressed the crack on the surface, which enhanced the surface uniformity and density of YBCO deposited film. It was found that acetone suspension solution showed better deposition properties than the others. The samples fabricated in the solution with the additive, 8 vol.% of 1% PEG(1000), showed the highest critical current density measured as $2300{\sim}2400\;Acm^2$ at 77 K, 0 T.

BSCCO thin films have been fabricated by co-deposition at an ultralow growth rate using ion beam sputtering(IBS) method. The growth rates of the films was set in the region from 0.17 to 0.27 nm/min. MgO(100) was used as a substrate. In order to appreciate stable existing region of Bi 2212 phase with temperature and ozone pressure, the substrate temperature was varied between 655 and $820^{\circ}C$ and the highly condensed ozone gas pressure($PO_3$) in vacuum chamber was varied between $2.0{\times}10^{-6}$ and $2.3{\times}10^{-5}$ Torr. Bi 2212 phase appeared in the temperature range of 750 and $795^{\circ}C$ and single phase of Bi 2201 existed in the lower region than $785^{\circ}C$. Whereas, $PO_3$ dependance on structural formation was scarcely observed regardless of the pressure variation. And high quality of c-axis oriented Bi 2212 thin film with $T_c$(onset) of about 90 K and $T_c$(zero) of about 45 K is obtained. Only a small amount of CuO in some films was observed as impurity, and no impurity phase such as $CaCuO_2$ was observed in all of the obtained films.

High-$T_c$ superconducting (HTSC) power cable is one of the interesting parts in power application using HTSC wire. However, its stacked structure makes the current distribution between conducting layers non-uniform due to difference between self inductances of conducting layers and mutual inductances between two conducting layers, which results in lower current transmission capacity of HTSC power cable. In this paper, the transport current distribution between conducting layers was investigated through the numerical analysis for the equivalent circuit of HTSC power cable with a shield layer, and compared with the case of without a shield layer. The transport current distribution due to the increase of the contact resistance in each layer was improved. However, its magnetization loss increased as the contact resistance increased. It was confirmed from the analysis that the shield layer was contributed to the improvement of the current distribution between conducting layers if the winding direction and the pitch length were properly chosen.

Electrical and magnetic properties of $Y_1Ba_2Cu_3O_7-y$ sintered with $Bi_2O_3$ have been investigated by levitation experiment and the measurement of electrical resistivity. The effects of $Bi_2O_3$ addition on the microstructure of the sintered specimens were also investigated. The electrical resistivity in the normal state is smaller in $Y_{0.85}Bi_{0.15}Ba_2Cu_3O_{7-y}$, where the Bi is substituted into Y site, than in the basic compound $Y_1Ba_2Cu_3O_{7-y}$ due to improved microstructure. On the other hand, the microstructure is poor and electrical resistivity is larger in the $Y_1Ba_2Cu_3O_{7-y}$ sintered with excess $Bi_2O_3$. It appears that the impurity in grain boundary affect the electrical properties significantly but has little effect on the magnetic property.

Superconducting fault currents(SFCLs) are expected to improve not only reliability but also stability of real power systems. The analysis on the single line-to-ground fault 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 operation characteristics. We compared 21turn numbers with 42turn numbers according to wound turn numbers each the coil 2 under the additive polarity winding operation between coil 1 and coil 2. The three phase flux-lock type SFCL using an iron core differently operates general three phase resistive SFCLs. When a single line-to-ground fault occurred, the SFCL's three units were quenched after fault onset. We confirmed effective current limiting operation characteristics with adjustable inductance level.

The ac loss is an important issue in the design of high-Tc superconducting power devices such as transformers and cables. In these devices many Bi-2223 tapes are closely stacked together and exposed to alternating magnetic fields that can have different orientations with respect to a tape. In such arrangement the magnetization loss is influenced by the screening current induced in adjacent tapes and thus different from that in a single tape. This stacking effect was experimentally investigated by measuring the magnetization loss in a stack, which consists of a number of tapes. First the magnetization loss in the single tape was measured in order to confirm the reliability of the loss data measured in the stack. The results for the single tape coincide well will the loss characteristics described in other previous works. For the stack In parallel and longitudinal magnetic fields the measured loss is Independent of both the number of tapes and stacking type. The longitudinal magnetization loss Is well explained rather by the slab model for decoupled filaments. For the tall stack in perpendicular field the measured loss at low fields is greatly decreased, compared to the loss of the single tape. However the loss at high fields is unaffected. These loss behaviors in the tall stack are well described by the slab model for full coupling.
