A SFCL modeling and application with real HTS material connecting to real time simulator

Abstract

We propose a real time simulation method for the SFCL (superconducting fault current limiter) modeling and application with the real HTS (high temperature superconducting) material by using RTDS (real time digital simulator), and the transient phenomenon of SFCL system was analyzed in the simulated utility power network. SFCL components were modeled with the test sample of Bi-2223 and YBCO HTS tape with stabilizer of copper and brass material due the electrical characteristics of SFCL are dominantly dependent on the start of HTS tapes. The results from the simulation analysis proposed by this paper can be a good guideline for the selection of the SFCL material. © 2008 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
