Abstract
The theoretical base was developed and the mathematical model of dynamic thermal processes in a compartment of public transport was constructed. The software which is realized the constructed mathematical model was developed. The mathematical model provides for the possibility of taking into account the most possible environmental conditions which can have place in the actual operating conditions of a transport even the angle of illumination - the current temperature of the external environment, the presence of solar radiation taking into account the angle of sun’s illumination, and the temperature of the roadway. The software allows calculation and visualization non –stationary temperature fields in the public transport’s compartments using the example of a trolley bus. For a specific trolley bus design, a series of experiments to calculate the comfortable temperature for passengers were conducted, These experiments are showed the performance of the constructed model and allowed to formulate a specific proposal for improving the thermoregulation system of the trolleybus’ passenger compartment.

Summary
The necessity to design of comfortable public transport considering heat distribution, inner heat sources, compartment ventilation, and other factors requires the knowledge of the nature and parameters of convection flows and thermal processes occurring in the compartment. This experience can be used for the developing methods and research tools to solve the main purpose set in this work. We can solve this problem by numerical methods only and appropriate algorithms by using computer technology
