| Abstract |
In this paper, we reported the current limiting properties of superconducting fault current limiters (SFCL). Our SFCL was patterned in a coil-type on a YBCO film deposited using rf sputtering techniques and was coated with a gold shunt layer in order to disperse the heat generated at hot spots in the YBCO film. Current increased up to 13.5 Apeak at 60 Hz for the voltage of 11.5 Vpeak, which is the minimum quench point, and increased up to 17.6 Apeak at 60 Hz for the voltage of 80 Vpeak. The quench completion time was 5 msec at 11.5 Vpeak and 4 msec at 80 Vpeak respectively. We think that this architecture using coil-type SFCL can be useful for the protection of the power delivery systems from fault currents. |
