This is another example showing that Revit is not suitable for detailed energy simulation (or load calculation).

If you really want to have detailed results, you need to use a dedicated software.

 

 

 

Revit Version: R2026.4.2
Hardware: i9 14900K, 64GB, Nvidia RTX 2000 Ada 16GB
Add-ins: ElumTools; Ripple-HVAC; ElectroBIM; Qbitec

Sorry, I accidentally pressed the "Accept the solution". But it doesn't help. There is no suitable option in the list.

It's not clear to me what you are asking.  Have you set Building Type and your Parameter Values under Building/Space Type Settings yet?

Yes, I set these parameters. The building is a dormitory. Each room has its own air conditioner with cooling and heating option. They don't use heat pumps, boilers, VAV or gas heat. The question is - what HVAC system to choose from the given list?  

I used the link you sent, and didn't find anything suitable.

I'm still not following you, buddy. It's an Energy Analysis -- not a HVAC equipment planner.  Run the Analysis with the default settings. You'll have further opportunities beyond to manipulate the results/data.  You can get into the "weeds" then.  But first, you need to know how "tall" the weeds are.  Run the Energy Analysis to find out.

Once passing by the room, I noticed a ray of sun falling on my air conditioner, I immediately wondered if this could somehow negatively affect my device. But rearranging it is already too late and very frustrating, so I tried to find a solution to this problem on the Internet. I found how to protect ac outdoor unit from sunlight . This blog helped me out a lot, although I had to rearrange the air conditioner, but at a lower cost. It will also help people who want to install air conditioning in the near future, the blog will tell you which places are best to choose and explain why.

Outdoor unit protection is one of the most important components to protect the air conditioner from damage. Its safety must be taken very seriously, even it seemed that the outdoor unit only protects the internal components of the air conditioner

I have tried many different types of air conditioning systems, and the only thing I can say is that it's essential to choose them by the particularities of your house. It is necessary; to get some help from the specialists in the soman. I know it because my friend once put the system by his thoughts, and it didn't have any significant effects on the climate in his house. I have heard there are plenty of companies that do free ac estimate, and it is a perfect option for people who do have the possibility of taking an expert into their houses. I hope you'll find the person that will give you all the needed information on how a specialist should put your system.

There are four principal kinds of HVAC systems:
Split systems, crossbreed systems, ductless systems, and bundled warming and air systems. You ought to pick what's generally reasonable for your home and financial plan.

Split system: "Split" between two principle units system: (one for cooling and one for warming), is generally normal in the HVAC system.
Hybrid system:

An advanced variant of the split system, the fundamental contrast is that it has further developed energy proficiency as it is furnished with a half-breed electric radiator system.
Ductless system:

comprises of an external forced air system for cooling and a hotness siphon for cooling and warming, reasonable for homes where regular systems of ducts can't be utilized
Bundled system:

offers excellent warming and cooling consolidated into one unit, typically utilized in homes without cellars ,  and is normally introduced outside.
