摘要
In this study, a new concept is proposed on a combination device with functions of a commercial transformer and a superconducting fault current limiter (SFCL). This device serves as a transformer by stepping the voltage up or down in normal condition. When a transient phenomenon occurs in the power system, it serves as an SFCL to limit the fault current. The device quickly detects the line current using a current transformer (CT), and is based on the high-speed, silicon-controlled rectifier (SCR) interrupter operation. This is done by identifying the fault using an SCR switching control system. The test results showed that the fault current was limited by the impedance of the superconducting element a half cycle after a fault occurred. An SCR that initially had a normally open contact was turned on within a half cycle. However, an SCR with a normally close contact was turned off after a half cycle because the current dropped below the holding current after a half cycle. The voltage of the superconducting element was low in the step-down turn ratio condition of the transformer. This was because the secondary and tertiary windings were connected in series due to the SCR-1 turn-off condition, and the sum of voltages on each winding appeared on the superconducting element. By combining the existing power device technology and an SFCL technology, it is expected that the existing problems of an SFCL can be addressed to construct a smart power system.
