Modeling VRV system in Trace 700

Hello there,

So I`m trying to model VRV system in Trace 700 and imported Darkin equipment built for Trace. My problem is that I could only find cooling Darkin VRV equipment for space cooling and my only available heating equipment seems to be boiler. Does anyone know what system, plant and equipment should I assign to my space heating. I know that VRV is mostly for space cooling and if it does provide heating, it should be working as a heat pump or it needs to have HR system. I need to simulate the whole year period so this problem is crucial to me. Thanks to any help you guys can provide.

Also, as I mentioned, if I want to add HR system to my VRV system, where should I add it and what kind of configurations should I do.

Sorry for the lengthy question, thanks to all again!!!
