Abstract

As one of the countermeasures to improve the recovery characteristics of the SFCL (superconducting fault current limiter), the method using the trigger of high-TC superconducting element (HTSC) when the quench in the HTSC element occurred was proposed. To confirm the suggested method, the control circuit to detect the quench occurrence of HTSC element in case of the fault occurrence was designed and the current limiting and recovery experiments of the SFCL using the designed control circuit were performed. Through the analysis for the experimental results, the points of both the open time and the closing time of a power switch comprising the control circuit could be adjusted by the resistance amplitude of a normal conducting current limiting resistor (CLR) and the recovery characteristics of the SFCL together with the current limiting operation could be confirmed to be improved by using the control circuit.

본 논문에서는 고장발생 초기에 초전도 전류제한기를 구성하는 초전도 소자의 ��치발생을 검출하여 고장전류의 경로를 별도의 상전도 전류제한기로 우회시킴으로써 초전도 전류제한기의 회복시간을 단축시킬 수 있는 초전도소자의 트리거를 이용한 초전도 전류제한기의 전류제한 및 회복특성에 대해 분석하였다. 고장전류 크기를 조절하기 용이한 구성요소로 상전도 전류제한기의 저항크기에 따른 초전도 전류제한기를 구성하고 있는 전력용스위치의 개방시점과 투입시점의 변화를 비교하였으며, 분석을 통해 상전도 전류 제한기의 저항이 증가할수록 초전도 전류제한기를 구성하는 전력용스위치의 복귀시간이 길게 나타남을 확인할 수 있었다.
