solsticepy

solsticepy provides a set of Python functions that make the task of setting up and running a Solstice ray-tracing simulation of a CSP system a little easier. At this stage it has been primarily used for simulations of central-tower CSP systems, even though Solstice itself is capable of simulating a wider range of system types.
