Inrush Current of Superconducting Transformer

IEEE Transactions on Applied Superconductivity, 2013
Inrush current in superconducting transformers is a little-known phenomenon. Because of its high values and long time, it may lead to loss of superconductivity in transformer's windings. In the article, we present results of inrush current measurements in two superconducting transformers of the same power but different winding geometries.

Transforming transformers [superconducting windings]

IEEE Spectrum, 1997
Use of high-temperature superconducting (HTS) windings may soon turn power transformers into compact high-performers on good terms with the environment. The potential for HTS transformers is being examined in major design and hardware development programs by several teams of engineers and scientists worldwide.

Power Transformer With Superconducting Windings

[1993] Digests of International Magnetics Conference, 1993
A 330-kVA power transformer with superconducting windings is discussed. A niobium-titanium based superconducting wire optimized for AC applications was used in the windings. The transformer worked according to its design at rated power. The total heat input to the liquid helium bath at this power was 9.4 W, of which the AC losses dissipated in the ...

Quench protection of superconducting transformers

IEEE Transactions on Magnetics, 1991
Protection of superconducting transformers from the quench caused by excess fault current was studied theoretically with the aid of a simple equivalent circuit model which was composed of leakage inductance and resistances of the conductor. The authors distinguished the resistance in the flux-flow state from that in the normal state, and basic ...

Superconductive windings in power transformers

Journal of the Institution of Electrical Engineers, 1963
The superconducting elements exclude all magnetic field from their bulk and restrict conduction within a few hundred angstroms of their surface, but there are alloys in which d.c. superconduction occurs in depth. The paper examines the electromagnetic behaviour of both these forms of superconductor, and includes a description of the loss mechanism in ...

A study on a coreless superconducting transformer

IEEE Transactions on Applied Superconductivity, 1993
A conceptual design for a 1000-MVA-class coreless superconducting autotransformer (CLSCAT) has been developed. For a preliminary experimental study, a small 2.5-kVA CLSCAT has been manufactured and tested. The test result shows that though the exciting current of the CLSCAT is very large, its voltage drop is relatively small compared with the cored ...

Superconductivity and structural transformation in HfRuAs

Physics Letters A, 1983
Abstract HfRuAs exists in two structural modifications. The high-temperature phase (ZrRuSi-type structure) exhibits superconductivity at 4.93-4.37 K, whereas the low-temperature phase (TiFeSi-type superstructure) remains normal at 1 K. The lattice distortion giving rise to the superstructure indicates zig-zag chains of metal atoms are crucial to ...
