Tracking for CSP #189

Open filljonas opened 1 year ago

filljonas commented 1 year ago

Hello,

I'm currently using pyGRETA for CSP time series modeling and have a question about the physical model code, specially about the function calc_CF_solar.

The script contains the comment # For CSP: tracking like pv.tracking = 1 (Line 214) that suggests that one-axis-tracking is applied for CSP (this is also written in the documentation).

However, it does not seem like proper tracking is used here, the tracking-function is never called for CSP. Is this maybe missing in the code?

But perhaps it also fails in my understanding of the model.

Best regards, Jonas Fill
