A conduction-cooled superconducting magnet system is developed for material separation. The superconducting magnet for material separation has to be designed to have a strong magnetic field in a control volume. Since the magnetic field gradient is larger at the end rather than at the center of the magnet, we developed a design method to optimize the superconducting magnet for material separation. The safety of the superconducting magnet is evaluated, taking into account the electro-magnetic field, heat and structure. The superconducting coil is successfully wound by the wet-winding method. The superconducting coil is installed in a cryostat maintaining high vacuum, and cooled down to approximately 4 K by a two-stage GM cryocooler. The performance of the conduction-cooled superconducting magnet system is discussed with respect to the supplied current, cooling medium and cooling power of a cryocooler.

Magnetic separation is expected to be applied for material refinement as an important supporting technology. In the superconducting magnetic separation, the cohesive force between particles is strong compared with that in the other magnetic separation. The use of high magnetic field by the superconducting magnet enhances the magnetic substance capture ability of the magnetic separation. Industrial raw materials was used for the superconducting magnetic separation. Cry-cooled, NB-Ti superconducting magnet with. 100 mm room temperature bore and 600 mm of height was used for magnetic separator.

The quench voltage of the second-generation superconducting wire is affected by the resistivity characteristics of the stabilization layer. The specific resistance of the stabilization layer can be changed by the deposition process using RF magnetron sputtering. In this paper, a thin film made of a homogeneous material (Ag) and a dissimilar material (Cu) was deposited on the stabilization layer of the second-generation superconducting wire through RF magnetron sputtering. We found that the specific resistance was reduced by increasing the thickness of the stabilization layer. The reduction in the resistivity of the stabilization layer led to a decrease in the quench voltage of the second-generation superconducting wire. We suggest that various characteristic changes of the second-generation superconducting wire can be expected through the successful change in the resistivity of the stabilization layer of the proposed deposition process.

The second-generation HTS wire its YBCO coated conductor is widely used in the superconducting power apparatus. The YBCO coated conductor uses the normal-superconducting junction to increase the transport capacity of superconducting power apparatus when it is applied. The normal-superconducting junction can be a cause of reducing the stability of the superconducting power apparatus when a fault current is applied. Thus, in this study we have conducted the effect analysing normal-superconducting junction for the fault current using transport current and quench resistance. From the experimental results when a fault current is applied, the effect on the normal-superconducting junction is reduced the larger the amplitude of the fault current and is helpful to maintain the thermal stability of the HTS wire.

In this paper, a new design method for superconducting pulse magnet is presented. Given energy storage capacity, magnet shape parameters are determined to minimize superconducting material quantity. Once the shape parameters are determined, cooling channel is designed and degradation characteristics are confirmed. According to the proposed magnet design concept, relatively uniform and low field distribution is obtained. Therefore, both the quantity of superconducting material and the mechanical load over magnet are reduced.

We investigated quench characteristics of superconducting elements connected in series and parallel each other. The serial and parallel connections of superconducting elements causes a difficulty in simultaneous quench due to slight difference between their critical current densities. In other to induce simultaneous quench, we fabricated four type circuits; serially connected circuit before parallel connection, the circuit connected in parallel before serial connection, serially connected circuit before parallel connection with reactors, the circuit connected in Parallel before serial connection with reactors. We confirmed that the simultaneous quenches occurred in serial and parallel connections of superconducting elements using reactors. In addition, the power burden of superconducting elements was smaller than those of serial and parallel connections of superconducting elements without reactors.

For the research of the effects on suspension solution with YBCO and BSCCO for elcectrophoretic deposition to prepare superconducting thick-film wire, it was investigated that the preheating technique for the superconducting powders in vacuum system was used with various solvent solutions of acetone, ethanol, toluene and buthanol for electrophoresis. As a result it was useful to remove the influence of remaining and adsorbed solvent solution which was existed between and on the particle surfaces when the specimens of superconducting wire by electrophoresis were treated in vacuum of 10$\^$-3/ Torr and temperature around 200$^{\circ}C$ in bell-jar system. From the prepared superconducting wire samples, the critical current density, Jc was measured by 4-point prove method in liquid N$_2$ at the value of 10$\^$3/ to 10$\^$4/ A/$\textrm{cm}^2$, respectively, for the YBCO and BSCCO superconducting wires.

Some experimental studies on the dielectric strength characteristics of organic material under compressive stress associated with high magnetic fields and of liquid coolant in the presence of thermally induced bubble, which might be generated at unexpected quench of immersed-cooling superconducting devices, was performed to obtain the basic data on the electrical insulation design for superconducting apparatus. PET and liquid nitrogen were used as test mediums.
