A task about three-dimensional distribution of indignation of temperature in a lithosphere is taken to the decision of two-dimensional task. The equalizations and algorithms of their decisions got as a result of undertaken studies let to conduct the numeral design of the developed convection in the conditions of mantle of Earth, to investigate the thermal cooperating of convective mantle with a lithosphere, to restore distribution of temperature in overhead part of lithosphere of region.
