Especially for the resistive superconducting fault current limiters (RSFCLs), a transient bubble disturbance in LN 2 is generated due to the quench of HTS materials, which may induce an electrical breakdown in LN 2 even under the rated voltage of RSFCL. We have been investigating not only the intrinsic breakdown characteristics of LN 2 under the steady-state operation, but also the dynamic breakdown characteristics of LN 2 under the fault current limiting operation of RSFCL. In this article, we investigate the heat flux and pressure dependence of the quench-induced dynamic breakdown characteristics of LN 2 by using an actual HTS conductor and a pancake coil model for RSFCL. In addition, the dynamic breakdown strength is discussed and systematized in terms of the volume effect of breakdown strength in LN 2 . A flowchart to estimate the intrinsic and dynamic breakdown strength in LN 2 is proposed toward the reliable and rational insulation design of RSFCL.}, pages = {264--269}, title = {Volume Effect of Dynamic Breakdown Strength in Liquid Nitrogen Under Transient Bubble Disturbance for Resistive Superconducting Fault Current Limiters}, volume = {29}, year = {2022} }
