Abstract

Fast transient analysis of a passive fault current limiter (FCL) using permanent magnets can be done by direct numerical solution of a single non-linear differential equation. The non-linear B-H excursion that is caused by hysteresis is incorporated in the computation using a transient hysteresis model. Rational fractions are used to represent the parent hysteresis loop curves. Since the method uses preconstructed expressions as applicable to FCL schemes only, computation time required is less.
