Abstract

In order to improve the ability of superconducting transformer on limiting fault current, the parallel stainless steel & REBCO tapes are used as the winding materials. Firstly, the critical current of an individual REBCO tape and the parallel stainless steel & REBCO tapes under fault current are measured experimentally to compare their ability of limiting fault current. Then the current distribution in the parallel stainless steel & REBCO tapes under different fault currents are simulated. Lastly, a 6 kV/400 V (120kVA) HTS transformer is designed, and the fault current characteristics of wingdings are simulated based on finite element method (FEM). Experimental and simulation results show that the parallel stainless steel tape can improve the current limiting performance of the windings, which is of important referential value for the design of HTS transformer.
