A magnetic flux coupling-type superconducting current limiter is capable of protecting lines more effectively by winding reactors of a primary coil and a secondary coil in series in the structure where the primary coil and the secondary coils are wound in parallel in the conventional magnetic flux-lock type current limiter to increase a linked flux generated from an iron core. An electric conducting current which rapidly increases when a fault occurs is divided into the secondary coil and a superconducting coil to decrease a load on the superconducting element and it is opened more rapidly than the existing superconducting current limiter during a quench time such that it better limits a fault current.

46 Fault Current Limiter Having Superconducting Bypass Reactor For Simultaneous Quenching US11567654 2006-12-06 US20070217097A1 2007-09-20 Dong-Keun Park; Min-Choel Ahn; Seong-Eun Yang; Tae-Kuk Ko
A fault current limiter is disclosed. The fault current limiter of the present invention includes a current limiting module and a superconducting bypass reactor. The current limiting module includes at least two pancake type bifilar winding modules, which are stacked and connected to each other in series. Each bifilar winding module has a bobbin, a first superconducting wire wound around the bobbin in a bifilar manner, and at least one pair of first metal blocks, which are installed and fixed to the bobbin and attached to the first superconducting wire. The superconducting bypass reactor is formed into a hollow shape so that the current limiting module can be disposed therein. A second superconducting wire is wound around the bypass reactor such that the superconducting bypass reactor is connected in parallel with the current limiting module. As such, because the fault current limiter is provided with the superconducting bypass reactor, when a short-circuit occurs the winding modules are prevented from being damaged by a voltage concentrated in one or several winding modules. Furthermore, the burden on the current limiting module is reduced by dispersing the current. In addition, the present invention can limit a fault current using both the resistance of the current limiting module and the inductance of the bypass reactor.
47 Non-Inductive Winding Wire-Type Solenoid Bobbin US11567615 2006-12-06 US20070200654A1 2007-08-30 Seong-Eun Yang; Min-Choel Ahn; Dong-Keun Park; Tae-Kuk Ko
Disclosed herein is a non-inductive winding wire-type solenoid bobbin. The bobbin includes a cylindrical bobbin body, winding grooves formed on an outer circumferential surface of the bobbin body at regular intervals, and a connection channel provided on one side of each of the winding grooves. According to the present invention, an inner wire is in direct contact with liquid nitrogen through the connection channel, thus increasing the cooling effect when an electrical power system experiences trouble, and a superconducting fault current limiter including the bobbin limits a current, therefore minimizing damage to the inner wire, and makes a fast recovery after the fault current is limited to allow the current to resume flowing in the system.

50 Magnetic-flux conduits US10092586 2002-03-08 US06720855B2 2004-04-13 Leandra Vicci
A magnetic flux guiding apparatus comprises a conduit having a wall that comprises an electrically conducting material. An electrically insulating gap is formed in the wall along an entire length of the conduit. The electrically insulating gap prevents the conduit from having a closed electrical path that links any of the desired magnetic flux paths. For example, the electrically insulating gap can prevent the conduit from having a closed electrical path that surrounds a lengthwise axis of the conduit. The apparatus can also comprise a magnetic-field source that produces a magnetic flux that passes through an interior region bounded by the conduit. Where the conduit comprises a conventional electrically conducting material, the magnetic-field source can be a source of time-varying magnetic flux, such as an electrical coil. Where the conduit comprises an electrically superconducting material, the magnetic-field source can also be a source of time-varying magnetic flux or constant magnetic flux, such as a permanent magnet.

The superconductor structure may be provided in particular for a current limiter device.
52 Resistive fault current limiter US09020431 1998-02-09 US06275365B1 2001-08-14 Swarn S. Kalsi; Gregory L. Snitchler
An electric coil includes bifilar pancake coils electrically connected to an adjacent pancake coil so that current flowing in adjacent turns of adjacent pancake coils flows in opposite directions at all radial region of the coil assembly. The superconducting fault current limiter is configured to provide a minimized inductance and low resistance in a normal state of operation. On the other hand, when a fault current exceeds a predetermined threshold, the resistance increases to a level sufficient for limiting the flow of fault current to a desired level until a circuit breaker connected within the electrical system opens the circuit.
53 Resistive superconducting current limiter US37737 1998-03-10 US6137388A 2000-10-24 Milan Saravolac
A superconductor is placed inside a non-metallic cryostat filled with a cooling medium to maintain the superconductor in a superconductive state. A foil winding is connected in series with the superconductor by current leads and the cryostat is placed inside the winding. The winding has only a few turns in order to provide low inductance and low magnetic field when the superconductor is carrying its normal operating current. However in the event of a fault the increase in electrical current in the line winding causes a magnetic field to be generated parallel to the superconductor. The magnetic field generated exceeds the critical magnetic field of the superconductor. The magnetic field produced by the line winding triggers the superconductor to the resistive state.

In a superconducting short circuit current limiter for an AC power supply net including an iron core, a primary coil and a secondary short-circuited superconductive coil, both being magnetically coupled with the iron core but being arranged at a distance from each other, the iron core has gaps at opposite sides of the secondary coil for thermically uncoupling the secondary coil from the rest of the magnetic core and a tertiary coil is arranged closely adjacent the primary coil in a magnetically strongly coupled relationship therewith, and has a heat capacity sufficient to accommodate the joulean heat generated when a fault or short circuit occurs in the power supply net, and the iron core has an area of reduced cross-section which is so selected that it becomes magnetic flux saturated when the current in the primary coil exceeds a predetermined reaction current level.
55 Method and apparatus for limiting high current electrical faults in distribution networks by use of superconducting excitation in transverse flux magnetic circuit US579929 1995-12-28 US5642249A 1997-06-24 Stephen B. Kuznetsov
The present invention pertains to an electrical fault limiter. The fault limiter comprises a first magnetic core. There is also a second magnetic core opposing the first magnetic core. The fault limiter additionally comprises a third magnetic core adjacent the first magnetic core. Also, there is a fourth magnetic core opposing the third magnetic core and adjacent the second magnetic core. The electrical fault limiter also moreover comprises a rotor disposed between the first and second magnetic cores, and the third and fourth magnetic cores. The rotor is rotatable about a rotor axis. The first and second magnetic cores are disposed on a first side of the rotor axis and the third and fourth magnetic cores are disposed on a second side of the rotor axis. Each core has a first arm, a second arm and a body to which the first and second arms are connected. Each body has a superconducting bias coil disposed about it. Each arm has a conduction mode coil disposed about it. The rotor has a high magnetic reluctance sector and a return flux sector such that when the magnetomotive force from each superconducting bias coil balances with the magnetomotive force from associated load coils on an associated core, there is no force on the rotor. But, when the magnetomotive force from the superconducting bias coil is less than the magnetomotive force from associated load coils on the associated core, then a force is produced on the rotor causing it to accelerate and the reluctance of the primary magnetic circuit is decreased, thereby causing an increase in the self-inductance of the primary coil.

A current-limiting device for an alternating current system has for each phase a pair of saturable reactors each with an iron core, an alternating current winding and a superconducting direct current bias winding which is common to the reactor cores and biases them both to saturation. The two alternating current windings in each phase are connected in series opposition such that under fault conditions they are driven out of saturation on alternate half-cycles and thus limit the overload current. The superconducting winding has a surrounding magnetic flux screen which also forms a loop for shunting alternating current under fault conditions and which may be used as a direct current control circuit for varying the bias level. The screen serves as the outer vessel of an evacuated enclosure for the superconducting winding and a suppot system for the inner vessel is also described.
