Default Best orchids for west facing windows? (Northern hemisphere)

Any recommendations for orchids that can grow well in a west facing windowsill? My only concern is the summer heat in the afternoons and a potential lack of sufficient hours of light.

And I would like to consider this without the "sheer curtain" solution as it is for an industrial space.

Right now I'm thinking Cattleyas, Catasetinae would be ok?

Oncidiums are probably a no-no and I'm hesitant about Phals, Paphs, and Phrags.

Any west facing windowsill growers have tips or can share experiences?
