Zusammenfassung:Object model data is obtained, defining an object to be built by a three-dimensional printing apparatus. Data defining a protective structure to be built around the object by the three-dimensional printing apparatus is automatically generated. Different portions of the protective structure each have a structure defined by a respective structural parameter that determines the thermal properties of the portion, and each respective structural parameter is determined based on the object model data so as to provide a selected level of heat dissipation through the respective portion of the protective structure, when the object and protective structure are built by the three-dimensional printing apparatus.
