“…In 2015, Upadhyaya et al 5 analysed the performance of a closed‐core three‐phase SISFCL using the Jiles‐Atherton hysteresis model. The model was simulated in Matlab against the application of single‐line to ground, double‐line to ground and three‐phase to ground short‐circuit faults.…”

“…For every half‐cycle of the sinusoidal supply voltage, one of the cores of the faulted phase gets unsaturated. Thus, the current limiting action of the SISFCL remains in effect 5 until the fault is removed from the network. Following the clearance of the short‐circuit fault, the decreasing magnitude of the AC line current results in the magnitude of the net fluxes flowing through the cores to return to their default values.…”

Short-circuit faults are the most commonly occurring faults in an electrical power system. Traditionally, circuit breakers, fuses or similar protective devices are used to safeguard sensitive equipment from these faults by disconnecting the supply. An alternative approach for protection against shortcircuit faults is using fault current limiters (FCL), which suppress the large magnitude currents created by the fault to manageable values. This fault limiting action not only prevents damage to delicate equipment but also aids in providing uninterrupted power supply to the consumers. A promising FCL design is the saturated iron-core superconducting fault current limiter (SISFCL), which uses the property of its ferromagnetic core to suppress high-magnitude currents. In this paper, the performance of an open-core type three-phase SISFCL is analysed in response to variation of three model parameters. The parametric analysis is performed on the SISFCL under the effects of a symmetric-type three line to ground (LLLG) fault and an asymmetric-type single line to ground (SLG) fault. A finite-element modelling (FEM) approach is used in the design and simulation of the model in ANSYS Maxwell software. Following the parametric analysis, an optimization of the design of the SISFCL is performed using the Quasi-Newton Gradient Search method, in order to improve its performance against both LLLG and SLG faults.

A very common kind of fault that appear in an electrical power system is the short-circuit fault, which were traditionally handled by the use of protective devices like fuses or circuit breakers which would disconnect the power supply to protect the components of the network. An alternative to these are fault current limiters (FCL), which are protective devices that limit or suppress the high-magnitude currents created during a short-circuit fault, thereby preventing damage to sensitive equipment and also aid in providing uninterrupted power supply to the consumers. A saturated iron-core superconducting fault current limiter (SISFCL) employs the ferromagnetic property of its core material to automatically suppress high-magnitude currents. In this paper, the performance of an open-core type three-phase SISFCL design is evaluated against three different kinds of short-circuit faults. The analysis is performed using finite element modelling (FEM) in the ANSYS Maxwell software environment.
