In Floor Plan view, use symbolic lines to represent the heat exchanger according to industry standards (typically a rectangle with a diagonal or "S" curve). 5. Data and Shared Parameters
Link the connector's "Pipe Diameter" to a family parameter. This ensures that when you change the unit size, the pipe pipes automatically resize to match. 4. Visibility Graphics (LOD Management)
Before you place your first reference plane, decide on the family's purpose.
Set the shell-side and tube-side flows correctly. Use the Link Connectors tool so Revit understands that what goes in one side must come out the other, allowing for accurate pressure drop calculations across the system.
(Crucial for structural engineers!) 6. The "Bundle Pull" Clearance Zone
Model these as separate extrusions. Ensure they have a "Length" parameter so they can adjust based on the shell's size. 3. Setting Up Smart Connectors
