Dear Abhilash, Thanks for your response.
Yes, I aware of the column 7 that specifies the notation "area". But, my question is about not doing it manually for every case system. If we come up with some cut-sets upon the system, then we can apply the same for other case system for an application. This automatic approach facilitates validating the application with different case systems. However, the logic for cut-sets may vary with respect to an application. So, with For example, as mentioned in the paper, the application considered is "'Multi-area State Estimation". Now, If I would able to define some rules to discover cut-sets (might be through tie lines - the lines where two networks connect together), then I can pass either case118 or any case as an input and get the areas. This systematic leads to test the multi-area state estimation code across other systems. Hope you got my question now. Please, let me know if there is a provision for developing such a converter, where it takes case data as an input and outputs the case data with multi-areas (may be the column 7 updated). -- with Regards ---------------------------------------------------- Gelli Ravikumar Research Scholar (Ph.D), Field Computations Lab, Dept. of Electrical Engineering, IIT Bombay, Powai, Mumbai 400076 Ph: 022-2576 4424, 089 765 983 96 Gandhian Young Technological Innovation Award - 2013 POSOCO Power System Award: PPSA - 2013 IITB PhD Executive Member - 2013-14 IITB SARC Core Technical Member - 2014-15 On Tue, Oct 28, 2014 at 6:52 AM, Abhilash Kantamneni <[email protected]> wrote: > Gelli, > > I am afraid that the question you are asking might be rather trivial.
