SAM sample case file for solar augment power plants was created by Reda
Could you please direct me to / send me the SAM case file that has been developed in the past to represent solar-augment applications, such as integrated solar combined cycle power plants. This SAM case file was downloaded from the SAM website but can't find it now. The purpose of this case file is to estimate the delivered solar thermal energy available to the fossil plant steam cycle.

Thank You and Best Regards

SAM can model a concentrating solar power plant that uses a gas-fired boiler to supplement solar energy (fossil fill), but not a steam cycle that is augmented by solar energy (integrated solar combined cycle).

Best regards,
Paul.
