1. A computer-implemented method of branch encoding an electric network to identify a direction of power flow in the electric network, said method using a computing device having a processor communicatively coupled to a memory, said method comprising:
assigning sequential numbers to a first power source of the electric network, to each one of a plurality of connecting nodes of the electric network, and to each one of a plurality of power branches extending between different pairs of the plurality of nodes, wherein each branch is a direct connection between a pair of nodes, wherein each branch includes an encoded identification of a first connecting node and a second connecting node between which it extends and to which it is connected, and wherein said sequential numbers begin with the power source; and assigning, by the computing device, a rationalized value to each branch of the plurality of branches, the rationalized value being indicative of a direction of current flow through a branch, the rationalized value of each branch with current flow in a first direction is equal to the negative of the rationalized value of each branch with current flow in a second direction that is opposite of the first direction. |
