*PBCP: Powder Bed Convection Powder Sides

*PBCP

r1, r2

r1: r*8: Powder sides surface convection coefficient

r2: r*8: Sink temperature for powder sides convection

*PBCP specifies the convection value and sink temperature for the sides of the powder during each part-level powder bed simulation increment. This card requires loose powder elements to be turned on by *+PDR to be used. *PBCP is static, not temperature dependent. *PBCP overides any *CONV value set. Consult Local Convection Temperature Illustrations to see how this card is applied for the powder and no-powder cases.

Required card: *+PDR
