System Library |

| To view the System Library page, click System Library on the main window's navigation menu. Note that for the dish input pages to be available, the technology option in the Technology and Market window must be Concentrating Solar Power - Dish Stirling System.
For dish-Stirling systems, a complete set of default values for the parameters on the system pages (except costs) are stored in the system library. There is a set of default input values for two systems: SES and WGA-ADDS. When you choose one of these systems, Solar Advisor populates the input pages with parameters appropriate for the system. You can modify variable values on the input pages without affecting the values stored in the library. Note: These systems are discussed in the thesis Stirling Dish System Performance Prediction Model (Fraser 2008) https://www.nrel.gov/analysis/sam/pdfs/thesis_fraser08.pdf (4.1 MB).
