Superconducting fault-current limiter and inductor design
Abstract
A superconducting fault current limiter (SFCL) that uses a biased superconducting inductor in a diode or thyristor bridge circuit was analyzed for transmission systems in 69, 138, and 230 rms kV utility transmission systems. The limiter was evaluated for costs with all components, superconducting coil, diode and/or SCR power electronics, high voltage insulation, high voltage bushings and vapor cooled leads, dewar, and refrigerator, included. A design was undertaken for the superconducting cable and coils for both diode and SCR 69 kV limiter circuits.
