Abstract

To reduce the requirement of DC-biasing capacity and improve the biasing ability of a permanent magnet (PM), a novel hybrid saturated-core fault-current limiter (HSCFCL) is proposed in this paper. Compared with traditional saturated-core fault-current limiter (SCFCL), the HSCFCL has the advantages of small size, low DC-biasing capacity, a high biasing ability of the PM and excellent limiting performance. Firstly, the principle and the magnetic circuit model of the HSCFCL are introduced. Then, the improvement of DC-biasing capacity with a PM is analyzed. In addition, the influence of the leakage-flux effect on the biasing ability of the PM is presented in detail, and a small-section optimal structure is proposed to improve the biasing ability of the PM. Finally, to validate the principle and performance of the HSCFCL, various electromagnetic simulations, optimization studies and experiments are carried out. The simulation and experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.
