The heat inertia of bees in clusters has been investigated by calorimetric method with respect to internal and external perturbations. It is suggested to use the changing of heat content of body as an integral value reflecting the heat state of the aggregated insects; it is determined, in turn, by the value of their population and by geometry of aggregation. The convergent similarity and basic differences of thermoregulation mechanisms between mammalians and aggregated bees are considered. It is supposed to use these mechanisms for modeling of heat processes that take place at cooling of mammalians.
