A mathematical model of formation of temperature fields in linings of metallurgical equipment is proposed, which is based on the finite-element method and specific features of heat transfer on elements of this equipment. The model is used to study temperature fields in the lining of a steel-teeming ladle under various operating conditions. The model is verified experimentally with the example of a steel-teeming ladle cooled after the metal is treated; the experimental verification shows that calculated temperature values at check points are in accord with experimental temperatures.
