Physical Trough Model with Molten Salt Field HTF was created by Paul Gilman

Are there any examples of how to use SAM to model a parabolic trough system with molten salt as the field HTF?
The "Modeling Parabolic Trough Systems" webinar  explains how to model a trough system with salt for the field HTF. We've also posted sample files on the webinar page that you can use for reference. 
Note that the webinar demonstrates the approach in SAM 2014.1.14. You can use the same approach in SAM 2015.1.30 and later.
Best regards,

Paul.
