The SPF Info CD contains a comprehensive collector catalogue (with collectors tested at the SPF institute) as well as a variety of software tools, demo programs and a vast selection of current SPF publications.

TubeCalc is a useful (freeware) program that enables users to rapidly calculate pressure losses and flow conditions in collector and piping loops.

The Polysun software package includes a program for the simulation of solar thermal systems. Originally developed at the SPF institute, this software is now marketed by Vela Solaris, a spin-off from SPF.

• Type 869 Boiler Model - Version 5.02
• Type 832 Collektor Model - Version 5.00

AbsorberMaster is an SPF program for the comprehensive design and optimization of solar absorbers. The software is currently maintained and marketed by SolarCampus, another spin-off from SPF.
