        The molten salt power tower model in SAM 2016.3.14 and later versions report the following new output variables. They appear on the Data tab of the Results page under "Matrix Data", and are also available as variables via LK script:
Flux map intensities (flux_maps_out)
Solar field optical efficiencies (eta_map_out)
Heliostat position tables (helio_positions)
Best regards,
Paul.

        The field efficiency matrix is available as output variable of programme SolarPILOT?

        In SAM, the SolarPILOT field efficiency matrix is available on the Data tables tab as described above.
In the standalone version of SolarPILOT, you can also find that matrix and other data.
Best regards,
Paul.

        If I don't use SAM but only SolarPILOT, the field efficiency matrix is available?

        Yes. The field optical efficiency table is an output of SolarPILOT.
