A refined "lumped-capacity" model has been proposed for 
description of the process of formation of a temperature field in 
the isotropic half-space-thermoactive spacer-thermal protective 
coating system exposed to the external heat flux; the determining 
parameter of this model has been identified and the possibility of 
using it in practice has been substantiated.
