I’m trying to set the following two Built-in parameters via Dynamo for duct pressure loss calculations: Pressure Loss Method → Set to specific coefficient Loss Method Settings → Set a specific K coefficient given as input for each duct fitting
I’ve tried some nodes, recently the Set BuiltIn Parameter from Archi-lab but it gives me an error in the code.
I’ve also found in the API repository that they should be named: “RBS_DUCT_FITTING_LOSS_METHOD_SETTINGS” & “RBS_DUCT_FITTING_LOSS_METHOD_SERVER_PARAM”
Have somebody tried access & modify these 2 parameter?
Yes exactly for the “Loss Method” parameter, same I’d like to do for the “Loss Method Settings”, passing a value (double) as Specific Coefficient for each fitting.
Thanks now it works!
I still have a problem on the first run on new fittings when no values were set for the Specific Coefficient.
Found out that when the field is empty the script doesn’t run.
Also I’m thinking a way to re-run the Revit pressure drop overall calc after the modification, since as described in other posts, it won’t automatically update.
allrihgt not sure i cant do that…seems work fine here…i think…probably i misunderstand, becoarse my duct fitting always have a value with startup…0.0 in settings—specific coefficient and not empty
arhhh noew i see it when open a ootb mechanical template…then its empty, true…i will take a look on that situation. here in the weekend…and see if it could be fixed…
but sounds more as a transaction thing for me maybe…
