Dialog Settings for Heating Water / Cooling in the LINEAR Solutions for Autodesk Revit

The dialog is divided into the following sections, the detailed description of which can be found on separate help pages subordinate to this page:

System Types

In this area, you specify which system types are used for detecting components and pipes during pipe network calculation.

Component Detection

In this section, you specify whether the entire network or only parts of the network should be included in the calculation. Furthermore, you can decide whether the modeled dimensions should initially be adopted as fixed dimensions in the calculation, or whether the correct dimensions should be calculated.

Calculation Presettings

In this section you can determine global settings for the pipe network calculation and specify limit values.
