Load SolarPILOT field performance error #71

Description

Bug description:
If an user:

  1. Generates a solar field
  2. Saves the file
  3. Closes SolarPILOT
  4. Reopens SolarPILOT
  5. Loads previous made file (in step 2)
  6. Simulates performance
    The receiver flux profile generated in step 6 differs slightly to that if the user generates a solar field and simulates performance without the steps outlined above.

Benchmark difference: (using SP default parameter values)

Flux Profile when field is generated then simulated:
generate_then_simulate
System Summary Table
generate_then_simulate_res_table

Flux Profile generated using steps 1-6 above:
load_then_simulate
System Summary Table:
load_then_simulate_res_table

  • Highlighted values are discrepancies between generate then simulate method above.
