Current density distribution in resistive fault current limiters and its effect on device stability

The increase of current uniformity along a resistive type superconductor fault limiter (R-SFCL) in the design this limiters is well perceived as an important issue. non-uniform distribution R-SFCL only increases some superconducting regions, result, conditions, certain parts undergo phase change that heat pressure those areas and causes breakdown destruction device. In paper, density distributions common patterns used R-SFCs constructions have been simulated investigated. To end, effective model proposed for to achieve highest harmonic over superconductors compared other patterns. simulation results Ansys Maxwell Software advocate appropriate satisfying performance model.
