Question about Dish Stirling Collector

I run a simulation for dish Stirling collector and want to know the total pumping power for fluid flow and cooling fan. But the hourly table on results only have total parasitic load. Do you know where I can found which percentage is fluid pumping power and cooling fan power?
As you note, SAM's dish Stirling model only reports the total parasitic electrical consumption in the hourly results. The parasitic loads are defined on the Parasitics input page.
You can get an idea of the total consumption for both fluid pumping and the cooling fan by setting the "Control System Parasitic Power" input to zero. There is not a way to show the pumping and fan power as separate results.
Best regards,

Paul.
