Recovery time of high temperature superconducting tapes exposed in liquid nitrogen

Progress on Second-Generation High-Temperature Superconductor Tape Targeting Resistive Fault Current Limiter Application

“…Extensive studies have been carried out on testing HTS tapes for resistive fault current limiter application. Llambes et al [25] and Hajdasz et al [26] studied the application of superpower tapes in SFCL; Schmidt et al [27] and Baldan et al [28,29] studied the application of AMSC tapes in SFCL; Ahn et al [30], Park et al [31], and Sheng et al [32] compared the tape structures from different postprocessing treatments in the application of SFCL; Lacroix et al [33,34] developed a novel structure to increase the NZPV (normal zone propagation velocity) of HTS tape during impulse impact; Zhang et al [35] and Liu et al [36] determined the DC overcurrent impact on the tapes at different temperatures and analyzed quench resistance; Sheng et al [37] and Maeda et al [38] studied the quench recovery of the tapes after overcurrent impact and observed the bubbles generated by heat transfer on the tape surface during the quench process; Xiang et al [39] studied the effect of magnetic field on the overcurrent impact of tapes; Rusi ński et al [40] and Jiang et al [41] studied the effect of tape insulation on overcurrent impact; Liang et al [42,43] modeled the quench resistance of the tape through the R-Q curve; LV et al [44] laminated the optical fiber on the side of the tape to measure the temperature during the overcurrent impact process.…”
