Abstract: A method for suppressing magnetizing inrush current of the transformer with flux linkage control includes connecting a small-capacity direct current/alternating current (DC/AC) converter with the secondary winding or auxiliary winding of transformer, detecting the primary side phase voltage before closing load, inducing the core flux linkage reference according to the relationship between the winding voltage and core flux linkage. The core flux linkage closed-loop PI control system is constructed to control the converter voltage in the synchronous coordinate, then the core flux linkage can track its reference with no static error, thus the sinusoidal flux linkage with 90-degree difference from the grid voltage can be pre-established in the core before no-load closing. By these methods, no matter when the main transformer closes, the core flux linkage is always in the steady state, and the magnetizing inrush current can be eliminated completely.
