T. Ise et al., CHARACTERISTICS OF A 40KVA 3-PHASE SUPERCONDUCTING TRANSFORMER AND ITS PARALLEL OPERATION WITH A CONVENTIONAL TRANSFORMER, IEEE transactions on applied superconductivity, 5(2), 1995, pp. 941-944
A 40 k VA three phase superconducting transformer has been developed a
nd tested. From the test results, excellent voltage regulation of 0.3%
with a pure resistive load was obtained. As a usage in a power system
, parallel operation with a conventional transformer using copper wind
ings has been carried out, Although a superconducting transformer cann
ot continue to operate in case of quenching, the proposed parallel sys
tem can overcome came the drawback and give us an additional value of
fault current limiting function.
