The formulation and solution of the problem of non-stationary thermal conductivity in a composite material with variable thermophysical characteristics are considered. Density, heat capacity, thermal conductivity, as well as the power of the heat source due to the hydration reactions of the binder components change during the concrete hardening process. The heat transfer problem is formulated for the general case when there are no calculation formulas for thermophysical transfer coefficients. The “microprocess method” was used to calculate the dynamics of the temperature field. According to this method, the space from the outer surface of the heater is modeled by a system of successively located “rings”. When moving from the previous “ring” to the next one, the charge in the transfer coefficients and the power of the volumetric heat source were taken into account. At the same time, the initial and boundary conditions were corrected. The boundary value problems are formulated in the form of a differential equation of non-stationary heat transfer with an arbitrary initial distribution of transfer potentials, Dirichlet boundary conditions, and a heat source in the form Po=f(Fo).The obtained solutions are analyzed for some particular cases. Prospects for further theoretical and experimental research are determined.
