The most critical part of Revit family work for heat exchangers is the . Without correctly configured connectors, the family is just a 3D model, not a BIM element.
The family creator must map these connectors to specific system classifications (Hydraulic Supply, Hydraulic Return, etc.). Advanced work involves setting up Flow Direction parameters within the family, allowing Revit to calculate pressure drop if the data is populated. This enables the "System Browser" to track the flow rate through the exchanger accurately. shell and tube heat exchanger revit family work
