Viewing HVAC CFD post processing results in a high quality render architectural model

marcin.piechowski — Wed, 15 Mar 2023 00:33:31 GMT

Hi,

I am simulating the behavior of a HVAC system within a residential home, and would like to view CFD post processed calculations of airflow velocity and temperature distribution in a high quality render of the architectural model, used to create the fluid volume. Is this possible? For example exporting the post processed results back into REVIT, or another visualization package?

Thank you,

Marcin

I am not sure if Revit is able to visualize the results, but there is an add-in which allows exporting the results to Showcase software. You could also try to export the results CSV file and use it in the other software, but if you do not have experience, that could be problematic.

The add-in is not updated for version 2023, but it should work for 2021.

Hi Karol,

Thank you, I'll try using showcase and see how I go.
