• A three-dimensional parallel radiative transfer model for atmospheric heating rates for use in cloud resolving models—The TenStream solver http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.jqsrt.2015.05.003
• 3-D Radiative Transfer in Large-Eddy Simulations – Experiences Coupling the TenStream Solver to the UCLA–LES http://dx.doi.org/10.5194/gmd-9-1413-2016

• LibRadtran -- all purpose radiative transfer Library(partially free)
• UCLA-LES -- Large Eddy Simulation code for cloud resolving simulations
• COSMO -- Numerical Weather Prediction model
• DALES -- Dutch Atmospheric Large-Eddy Simulation model

The code is distributed under the GPL, and you are therefore free to use, change and redistribute it.
I do however highly encourage you to participate in the development of the codebase. If you are using the code in your work, please consider sharing bugfixes and experiences. Given the experimental status of the solver, I kindly ask that you get in touch before publishing any results concerning the TenStream solver to ensure correctness of the results.
It would also be appreciated to discuss co-authorship for research publications conducted with the TenStream solver.
