% Compute the total and directed solar array power from a CAD model The power is computed at 1 AU. Pass in a body vector to compute the area in a particular direction as well as the total area. The conversion efficiency of each component is used to compute the power as: p = area*flux*efficiency This finds areas from all components whose names contain 'solar panel' or 'solar array'.
