Let L be a Lie algebra of Block type over ℂ with basis {Lα,i | α,i ∈ ℤ} and brackets [Lα,i,Lβ,j]=(β(i+1)-α(j+1)) Lα+β,i+j. In this paper, we first construct a formal distribution Lie algebra of L. Then we decide its conformal algebra B with ℂ[∂]-basis {Lα(w) | α ∈ ℤ} and λ-brackets [Lα(w)λ Lβ(w)]= (α∂+(α+β)λ) Lα+β(w). Finally, we give a classification of free intermediate series B-modules.
