Development and Performance Analysis of a 22.9 kV/50 MVA Tri-axial HTS Power Cable Core

Tri-axial high-temperature superconducting (HTS) power cables are being developed to maximize their advantages such as reduced amount of HTS wires, a low-leakage magnetic field, and compactness compared with the different types of HTS power cables. The authors designed a 22.9 kV/50 MVA-class tri-axi...

Description
Summary:Tri-axial high-temperature superconducting (HTS) power cables are being developed to maximize their advantages such as reduced amount of HTS wires, a low-leakage magnetic field, and compactness compared with the different types of HTS power cables. The authors designed a 22.9 kV/50 MVA-class tri-axial HTS power cable core to apply to the distribution system in Korea. The inherent imbalance in the three-phase currents of the tri-axial HTS power cable core was calculated using the impedance matching program. A tri-axial HTS power cable core was fabricated using second-generation YBCO wires and the cable core was tested under 77 K liquid nitrogen to verify the performance of the cable core through obtaining its electrical characteristics data. This paper describes the results of the design, fabrication, and evaluation of the 22.9 kV/50 MVA-class tri-axial HTS power cable core. They will be used to develop a tri-axial HTS power cable for the distribution system.
