Аннотация:An algorithm for numerically solving the vector problem on the modeling of the convective motion of matter in the Earth's mantle was built and implemented. A 2-D model of convective cell formation in the mantle was considered with a moving heat source at the boundary with a core that generates an upwelling flow of the mantle substance. The motion of the heat source is possible only along the core-mantle boundary. If the heat source is absent,the system is conservative. The mantle was modeled as an incompressible fluid with constant viscosity.
