Popis: | Electrical faults on medium voltage electric power distribution systems can damage transformers. This fact motivated an R&D project in Brazil to study Fault Current Limiters for a utility. In this context, innovative design with a bifilar winding was developed for the present work, aiming to reduce self-inductance and to improve cooling rate. Long length second-generation superconducting tapes were used to build the prototype, which was constructed on a fiber-glass base. The prototype module has been tested at low voltage levels. The nominal operation, fault current limitation and recovery time have been examined for prospective currents of 2700 A and reduction of about 90 % in the current level. Due to fast recovery time and good heat exchange, the proposed topology has potential to be applied in a full-scale prototype. |
