4 Zenergy s Inductive Saturating 1G FCL Concept Presently, Zenergy has designed and tested a commercial 12kV SFCL and is intending to complete the design of a 138kV demonstration device based on host utility input and initiate construction of 1 phase of a 3-phase device The HTS material is used only to form a very strong electromagnet the DC coil that saturates an iron core inside the AC coils with a DC magnetic flux In this device, the AC line current of the power grid is always carried by conventional copper conductors formed into AC coils It is the large AC fault current that drives the AC iron core out of saturation, increasing the AC reactance and thereby limiting the current that flows in the power grid and acts as an auto-reactor 4
5 Zenergy s Inductive Saturating HTS FCL Concept Inductive saturating FCL concept employs HTS technology to normally saturate the iron with a single DC magnet Inductance (H) Equivalent FCL inductance showing low inductance at small currents and nonlinear inductance increase at high currents for positive and negative values Current (ka) 5

8 Current Testing and Performance of 12kV SFCL Gain impedance for a FCL saturable-core is 4-5 while for a conventional Current-Limiter-Reactor (CLR) is about 2. The SFCL demonstration shows a 20% fault reduction after 23 cycles of prospective fault current and 16% limitation at 1 st peak. Loss of substation power and shut down of the DC magnet. Proper operation of the SFCL depends on the power to excite the Magnet. Cryogenics and power in the DC magnet comes back to normal operation after the substation power is restored. 8

10 SuperLimiter Fault Current Limiter Project Title: Development and In-Grid Demonstration of a Voltage SuperLimiter Fault Current Limiter Organization and Partners: American Superconductor Corporation Southern California Edison Siemens AG Nexans GmbH & Co. KG 10
11 SuperLimiter Fault Current Limiter American Superconductor (AMSC) is addressing the development and in-grid testing of a 3-phase, high-voltage, 138-kV resistive FCL called SuperLimiter The SuperLimiter features a proprietary Siemens-developed, low inductance bifilar coil technology that makes the FCL invisible to the grid until it switches to a resistive state After 3 cycles of fault, the coils are disconnected from the power, switching the power to a reactor, to allow the 2G bifilar coils to recover without load The design uses high voltage components developed by Nexans and demonstrated on the DOE-funded LIPA cable project AMSC is employing resistive SFCLs because they are expected to be simpler and more compact in design 11
12 SuperLimiter Fault Current Limiter Prototype SFCL system for 115kV Nominal Voltage, 900A, 63 ka prospective, limited to 40kA. 12
13 SuperLimiter Fault Current Limiter Horizontal stainless steel Dewar facilitates the assembly of the bifilar coil setup 13
14 SuperLimiter Fault Current Limiter The module comprises 21 sub-assemblies, each containing 3 parallel coils, i.e. 63 coils in total Quench current is 3 x 2 x 260 A x 1.3 = 2028 A at 74 K (Ic of 1 tape = 260A) Voltage per length of the stainless steel is 56 Vrms/m Thus rated voltage is 56 Vrms/m x 26 m/coil x 21 coils = 30.6 kvrms 30.6 kvrms is lower than phase to ground voltage at 115 kv owing to the shunted limiter concept - voltage The modular approach comprises 21 sub-assemblies containing 3 parallel coils each. Therefore, the module contains a total of 63 bifilar coils. 14
15 SuperLimiter Fault Current Limiter Maximum load coils are subjected to under nominal condition is Rmax/R295 = 106 % (~350 K) 15

18 Waukesha SFCL Transformer The objective of the project is to demonstrate the technical and economic feasibility and benefits of HTS transformers in ratings of 10 MVA and above To develop a 28-MVA, 69-kV fault-current-limiting (FCL) HTS transformer for the DOE Smart Grid Initiative The ultimate goal is to fabricate and test a pre-commercial prototype HTS transformer operating at transmission level voltages in the 138-kV class To speed the addition of HTS transformers to Waukesha s product line, WES intends to use as much of its conventional transformer manufacturing technology as possible The project supports DOE s mission to develop revolutionary power equipment using HTS wires 18
19 Waukesha SFCL Transformer Main Components: Uses Waukesha design software and ORNL design spreadsheet Coil Dewar surrounds warm steel core Air-cooled core with blower Proof-of-concept divided into: Alpha-1 (1 Phase with normal conductor) Alpha-2 (1 Phase with HTS conductor) Waukesha manufacturing techniques will utilize experienced coil winders 19
20 Waukesha SFCL Transformer Transformer Design: Original design used parallel copper Motivated by ANSI requirement for a conventional non-fcl transformer to recover normal operation after a 2-sec fault Disadvantages of using thick stabilizer: Copper produces high eddy current losses Evaluating alloy options for replacing copper Fault current will be reduced to about ½ that of conventional unit SCE substation opening time is ~1 sec in area of interest for 28 MVA HTS Transformer design will be based on known engineering of conventional transformer design. 20

25 SuperPower s SFCL The current project purpose is focused on the development of based modules for a superconducting fault current limiter for operation at voltage levels up to transmission level This modular design allow us to scale up validated module voltages and currents in order to accomplish both Distribution and levels This design consists of parallel elements and conventional copper coils. By using a cold shunt coil, no external or ancillary components or equipment are required; the device is self-contained SuperPower s design also offers Recovery Under Load (RUL) capabilities. RUL enables the device to recover to the superconducting state while carrying load current from other (non-faulted) lines 25

30 Peak load current per tape and voltage for 74K and 77K Sub-cooled conditions at 74K improves voltage in 192% and current in 132%, a total of ~253% increase in power. A single circuit of 2 tapes in a SFCL module will limit 65% of 1 st peak fault in the entire voltage range (up to 25kA prospective tested at CAPS) Current at different frequencies play a critical role in percentage limitation, showing how important is to select the adequate reactance. Different tape architecture also plays an important role in the overall system percentage fault limitation at different frequencies. 30
