A Monte Carlo ray tracer for the optical simulation of solar concentrating systems
Tonatiuh is an open source, cutting-edge, accurate, and easy to use Monte Carlo ray tracer for the optical simulation of solar concentrating systems. Tonatiuh is designed to improve the state-of-the-art of the simulation tools that are meant for the creation and analysis of solar concentrating systems.
Here are some key features of "Tonatiuh":
An advanced and easy-to-use GUI providing:
· 3D and tree views of the "scene" to simulate.
· Handlers and manipulators to modify and query scene objects using 3D views.
· Interface elements to manage the undo and redo of user actions.
· Interface elements to define the type of Monte Carlo ray tracing to execute.
A pervasive plug-in architecture which allows the user to:
· Add new sunlight models.
· Add new geometric surfaces.
· Add new reflective materials.
What's New in This Release: [ read full changelog ]
· Fixes some programming bugs that, when running Tonatiuh under the MAC OS X, resulted in the user not being able to maximize the program's main window, or in some plug-ins not being loaded.
· Improves the implementation of the ShapeFlatDisk so that now when using this shape as the starting surface from which to cast solar photons into the solar concentrating systems, the origin of the photons are much more uniformly distributed upon the flat disk surface that under the previous implementation of the plug-in.
· Includes two new shape plug-ins (ShapeSphericalRectangle, and ShapeBezierSurfaces).
· Includes one new sunshape plug-in (SunshapeBuie).
