In the Neptune like in the other planets then had been the multi-layered differentiation of the substance, and as a result a long icy shell was generated. According to the theoretical data there is a cloak and a core in Neptune. The core mass may by 90% of the entire planet’s mass. The effective temperature is 38K but to the centre it increases up to (12-14)* 10^3K.
