Abstract
- A 500-m single-core high temperature superconducting (HTS) cable system has been constructed and tested in Yokosuka area, CRIEPI, by CRIEPI, The Furukawa Electric and Super-GM. In the actual power grid, the HTS cable distance extends sometimes several km. And has to be cooled down from about room temperature to liquid nitrogen temperature. As, the HTS cable is contracted and suffers mechanical stress. In the case of the tong distance HTS cable, it remains a major development issue. The FITS cable constructed in this test system has an offset section for absorbing the thermal contraction. In this paper, we describe the validity of that offset section and the thermomechanical characteristics on the cooldown and warm-up test. The offset functioned successfully as designed.
