Two-dimensional, nonstationary heat-conduction problems 
in a system of four finite bodies with an internal mobile heat source 
of the first kind (burning front) have been solved by the finite-element 
method. The influence of basic technological factors on the temperature-field 
parameters in the process of synthesis of TiB-40% Ti alloys has 
been investigated. It has been shown that for a real technological 
cycle the temperature field in a blank and a sand shell can be considered 
to be stationary and homogeneous.
