Tsurkoa UDC 669.18:538.911:519.6 The nonlinear problem on heat conduction with discontinuity coefficients was solved by the finite-difference method with the use of a grid irregular in time and space. The calculations were carried out using difference schemes with a "weight," making it possible to control the calculation accuracy. The computational experiment has been performed for a steel of standard quality. aInstitute of Mathematics, National Academy of Sciences of Belarus, 11 Surganov Str., Minsk 220072, Belarus; bPresidium of the National Academy of Sciences of Belarus, Minsk, Belarus; cBelarusian National Technical University, Minsk, Belarus.
