hello,

we are trying to slowly integrate Revit MEP into our work flow at my company. We have run into quite a lot of issues during our use. here are two recent ones.

1. when using the auto sizing feature the ductwork is completely out of whack. for instance we would use a rectangular mitered connection off a a VAV lets say 2000 cfm going to 6 outlets, i make the break lines in the ductwork as indicated in the tutorials and then go to auto size for 800 fpm and the result us a 3x3 inch rectangular duct. ??

2. when applying a thermal template in the heating and cooling loads it does not apply the internal gains to the room. so for like an exercise room you apply it to the room when in the room analysis of the heating and cooling dialog box but when you run the load calculations and go the the space it would say 0 people and 0 w/ft^2 lighting and so on. when you apply he template for office it works fine.

thanks
