Feasibility Study on a High-Temperature Superconducting Fault-Current-Limiting Cable (SFCLC) Using Flux-Flow Resistance.

We propose a high-temperature superconducting fault-current-limiting cable (SFCLC), which is a hightemperature superconducting cable with a fault-current-limiting function. The SFCLC is expected to achieve fault-current limitation by flux-flow resistance of a long cable length. Particularly, in this paper, we focus on E–I –T characteristics of a YBCO-coated conductor at the flux-flow region. Based on the obtained E– I–T characteristics, we develop a numerical model and investigate current-limiting characteristics of the SFCLC for different cable lengths and fault conditions into a model power system.
