      Results of a parallelization effort as applied to 3D heat transfer computations are described. The basic approach to numerical solution of the systems of 3D implicit finite-difference equations is the method of direction-based splitting. Two fundamentally different approaches to the organization of the massively parallel computations were developed. Parallelization efficiencies of the developed algorithms obtained on the MP-3 and Meiko computational systems are reported.
