Heating Ventilation Air-conditioning System related thesis topic for thesis
How about considering a building that might add skylights or other ways of incorporating solar, including films on the windows and how this impacts the need for heating and cooling (HVAC) during the year? Get some information from an architectural firm (or enlist the help of an architecture student) for cost of the solar modifications and different HVAC equipment so that you can build a cost model. Get power cost from local utility. You can get monthly average temperatures and cloud cover. Put it all together in an Excel spreadsheet. Calculate at least two periods per day (day and night), possibly four or more. The end result? If I make this change, it will cost me this much and over one, five, ten years, the difference in utility cost will be so much. I could get you started with the daily temperature history for anywhere on Earth you choose plus I'll put in a formula for the angle of the sun from date and time.

HVAC is a very broad topic. Step 1 of formulating a thesis topic is understanding what current research is addressing and what the current gaps are in that knowledge base. I suggest finding a few review papers to get a high level understanding of the field, then when you find something interesting you can dive in deeper. Some suggestions taken from the first three pages of Google Scholar results for "hvac review":
