TcsdirectSteam¶
Wrapper for SAM Simulation Core model: cmod_tcsdirect_steam.cpp
Creating an Instance¶
There are three methods to create a new instance of a PySAM module. Using default
populates the newclass’ attributes with default values specific to a config
. Each technology-financialconfiguration corresponds to a SAM GUI configuration. Using new
creates an instance with empty attributes. The wrap
function allows compatibility with PySSC, for details, refer to PySSC.
