Abstract A model of the thermal and hydrodynamic structure of the subduction zone is proposed. This model includes free convection flows in the asthenospheric layer and layer C (mantle transition zone). Temperature profiles in the subducting lithospheric plate, as well as in the continental limb of the subduction zone, are presented. The heat flux due to friction at the contact between the subducting plate and the continental limb significantly affects the heat transfer and, consequently, the temperature field formation in the subduction zone. The temperature level in the crustal layer of the submerging plate implies that there is no melting in the crustal layer.
