Package gridiq.poweranalysis.psat.parser Description

This package containes classes for parsing and serialising PSAT data files.

When a network model is loaded, GridIQ parses the network file and assembles a data structure representing the state of all devices on the network. Each of these array structures may contain a different number of attributes of different types, and different logic is required to correctly apply each array to the network model. In order to allow a different algorithm to be used to parse each array structure, the Strategy design pattern was employed by defining an interface DeviceParser. A class implementing this interface was created for each of the array structures, allowing the parser class to switch its algorithm each time it encountered a new array in a network file.

Before a power flow analysis can be performed on the current network state, the network is serialised to a PSAT network file. As well as defining methods to parse network files, the DeviceParser interface also defines functionality for generating the correct text representation of a network object when serialising each device back into a MATLAB array structure.
