The paper provides a theoretical proof that the methods of transformation optics can be used for thermodynamics. Thermal conductivity tensor is calculated for the development of the thermal invisibility cloak, which directs the heat flux around a certain area. The finite element method was used to simulate the cloak with parameters close to real. The simulation was performed by the finite element method for two cases: with gradient k and with copper/mica layered structure.
