Within substations installed with flexible ac transmission systems, the magnetic flux leakage (MFL) generated by air core reactors in static var compensator (SVC) can be very high. To reduce the influence of the high magnetic field, an optimal suppression method is selected based on fuzzy comprehensive evaluation. First, a series of onsite measurements are performed around the reactors in the SVC. From the measurement results, the low-voltage cables, dc system, grounding grid, and magnetic flux density around the air core reactors are seriously affected by the MFL generated by the air core reactors with currents of a few kiloamperes. Then, according to the actual parameters of the air core reactors, a three-dimensional simulation model is constructed using the finite-element method (FEM) to calculate the magnetic flux density and some parameters related to the magnetic field. Moreover, four different suppression methods are proposed to suppress the MFL influence. Due to the multiple aspects affected by MFL, it is always difficult to make a quantitative comparison for the suppression methods based on previous research. For this reason, a fuzzy comprehensive evaluation method based on a linear evaluation model is proposed to quantitatively compare the suppression methods by using the suppression effect value δ. In a comparison of different suppression methods, the aluminum plate shielding with proper parameters has prove to be an optimal method for achieving a comprehensive suppression effect. The modeling and evaluation methods presented in this article are both valuable to solve the complex MFL influence problem in different SVC-based substations.
