| Research Abstract |
The electrical insulation system of the high temperature superconducting(HTS) power devices is generally placed in the pool of cryogenic coolant. Moreover, the quench phenomena are inevitable in it and its dielectric strength is significantly reduced if the coolant vaporizes due to the Joule heat at the quenched part of the superconductor. Then, these two factors must be taken into the insulation design, and also considered in high voltage tests to secure the reliability of the designed electrical insulation. In the present research, the equivalent high voltage testing method at room temperature for promising HTS power devices at the stages of development, manufacturing and shipment is studied. The determination method of the equivalent insulation test voltage at room temperature is proposed and the application of the method to the HTS power devices is attempted. Especially, the basic parameter of "Medium Factor" for the estimation of the equivalent insulation test voltage is proposed and its usefulness is confirmed by experiments using modeled HTS coil elements and real coils.
