If the fault current is interrupted within an allowable time Tα after the fault occurs, the flux flow resistance type FCL can instantly recover to the superconducting state and pass a load current. In this paper, the volume Vγ of the HTS in the FCL required to satisfy the specified limiting effect and was investigated theoretically. The volume Vγ depends on the critical current density and the flux flow resistivity of the HTS. As the flow resistivity and/or critical current density increase, can be reduced to obtain a certain current limiting effect. When Tα is specified, Vγ has a maximum value at a certain flux flow resistance. If both the limiting effect and Tα are given, the required volume is constant and independent of critical current density or flux flow resistance.}, pages = {2052--2055}, title = {A study on required volume of superconducting element for flux flow resistance type fault current limiter}, volume = {13}, year = {2003} }
