SetConvection Method

Summary

Sets or removes the convection boundary condition.

Syntax

LabelEdgeHT.SetConvection (
  [set As Boolean],
  [Alpha As Double],
  [T As Double] )

Parameters

set
[in] Boolean
Alpha
[in] Double
T
[in] Double

Remarks

The SetConvection method allows setting or removing the convection boundary condition to the label. That border condition is also known as a condition of third kind.

If the first Boolean parameter bSet is True, the method sets the boundary condition. In that case the Alpha parameter should contain the value of film coefficient and T - the contacting medium temperature.

To remove the convection boundary condition use the SetConvection method with the bSet parameter as  FALSE. The Alpha and T parameters should be omitted.
