AB - An analytical method to calculate the temperature distribution of heavy  particles in the channel of the plasma torch on the known distribution of the  electronic temperature has been proposed. The results can be useful for a  number of model calculations in determining the most effective conditions of  gas blowing through the plasma torch with the purpose of heating the heavy  component. This approach allows us to understand full details about the  heating of cold gas, inpouring the plasma, and to estimate correctly the  distribution of the gas temperature inside the channel.
