| 20100199688 | APPARATUS FOR SUPPLYING LIQUID NITROGEN - An apparatus for supplying liquid nitrogen for a decompression device: includes a liquid nitrogen supply line extending such that high-temperature, high-pressure liquid nitrogen is introduced to a decompression device; a bypass pipe diverging from the liquid nitrogen supply line; and an expansion unit installed at the bypass pipe to evaporate the liquid nitrogen into nitrogen gas. The expansion unit is disposed to absorb heat from the liquid nitrogen in the liquid nitrogen supply line before being introduced to the decompression device. | 08-12-2010 |
| 20100199689 | CRYOSTAT OF SUPERCONDUCTING CABLE - A cryostat of a superconducting cable disclosed herein includes an inner metallic tube filled with liquid nitrogen and extended along the circumference of a core, an outer metallic tube surrounding the circumference of the inner metallic tube at a distance, a cooling vessel of a terminal connecting box connected to the inner metallic tube and filled with liquid nitrogen, an insulation tube surrounding the circumference of the cooling vessel at a distance, an inner bellows tube connecting an end of the outer metallic tube to the cooling vessel, and an outer bellows tube spaced apart from the inner bellows tube and connecting the end of the outer metallic tube to the insulation tube. | 08-12-2010 |
| 20110045987 | TERMINAL APPARATUS WITH BUILT-IN FAULT CURRENT LIMITER FOR SUPERCONDUCTING CABLE SYSTEM - A terminal apparatus for a superconducting cable system connects an overhead transmission cable or power appliance such as a breaker in an ambient temperature state to a superconducting cable through which power is transmitted at a cryogenic temperature. The terminal apparatus has: a refrigerant tub which is connected to the end of a superconducting cable and is filled with a refrigerant; a vacuum heat insulating container that surrounds the exterior of the refrigerant tub; a current lead having one end connected to the end portion of the superconducting cable and the other end connected to the overhead transmission cable or power appliance through the refrigerant tub and the vacuum heat insulating container; and a superconducting fault current limiter installed at a center portion of the current lead in the interior of the refrigerant tub to limit fault current. As the superconducting fault current limiter is built in the terminal apparatus, the terminal apparatus itself can play the role of a fault current limiter too. Hence, the terminal apparatus can protect a superconducting cable from a fault current directly by limiting the fault current flowed into the superconducting cable when a power transmission fault occurs. | 02-24-2011 |
