Revit Analytical Model Object Categories For CFD

[Anonymous]

Create Revit Analytical Model Object categories that correspond with at least CFD volume Material types.  Ideally, we would have Revit CFD Parameters associated with these analytical categories that would translate from Revit-to-CFD.  This would be similar to the Structural analytical model objects that currently exist in Revit.

This could facilitate more data than just the Revit object type name being imported into CFD when the model is launched in Revit.

I generally have to recreate or replace design families and geometry with idealized analytical families and geometry anyway.

This would really enhance Revit-to-CFD workflow and data management, as well as object organization and visualization.

Thanks for the suggestion! Agree that it would be useful to leverage more metadata coming from the BIM model. 

What sort of information would you prioritize? Materials, BCs, devices, other?
