Identify Cross Compound Units

Concept Link IconSee Also

 

Simulator regards cross-compound units as those that are connected to the same bus and that have generator id’s that match any of a number of specified pairs. You must define for Simulator the pairs of generator id’s that should be used to identify cross-compound units. Use the "How to identify cross-compound units" dialog to do this.

Specify the pair of generator id’s in the small text boxes below the text labeled "Specify a new pair of id’s that identify two units that belong to the same cross-compound set." Then, click the Add button to include the pair of id’s you just entered in Simulator’s cross-compound identification procedure. The box on the right lists all the pairs of identifiers Simulator will use to identify parts of a cross-compound set. To remove a pair of identifiers from this list, select it from the box and click the Delete key.

The list of cross-compound identifier pairs is stored in the pwrworld.ini file, so there is no need to specify these pairs each time you load in a new case.
