Abstract:
An electric power network includes: a plurality of power routers each including a plurality of power ports; a plurality of interconnection lines configured to connect the power routers in a grid manner via the power ports; and an electric power apparatus configured to consume or supply electric power, the electric power apparatus being connected to a power port that is included in at least one of the power routers and that is not connected to any of the interconnection lines. At least one of the power ports of each of the power routers is set as a dependent port for which characteristics of direct-current power to be input or output are not controlled.
Abstract:
A superconducting element for a superconducting fault current limiter, including a substrate 32, an intermediate layer 34 that is formed on the substrate 32, a superconducting layer 36 that is formed on the intermediate layer 34, an electrode 44 that is connected to the superconducting layer 36, and a metal fine particle sintered layer 40 that is interposed between the superconducting layer 36 and the electrode 44 and connects the superconducting layer 36 and the electrode 44.
Abstract:
The invention provides an oxide superconducting thin film, including: a base material; a superconducting layer containing a plurality of RE-based superconductor units including a rare earth element, CuO chains, and CuO2 planes; and an edge dislocation adjacent to the long CuO chain with respect to the layering direction. The CuO chains include long CuO chains that are present in the RE-based superconductor units in the vicinity of an interface between the superconducting layer and a layer adjacent to the base material side of the superconducting layer. The invention further provides an oxide superconducting thin film including a base material and an RE-based superconductor which includes CuO2 planes, CuO single chains and CuO double chains, and further includes a heterologous chain portion and a homologous chain portion.
