The paper describes characteristics of plasma temperature variation during two-current-loop collisions for different initial conditions, such as plasma-beta, the type of two-current-loop collision and initial current strength. Enhancement of the plasma temperature is caused by adiabatic heating. Strong initial current strength leads to a strong flare and effective plasma heating. It is suggested that comparing these characteristics with observed time profiles of physical quantities makes it possible to guess the initial conditions of loop-loop interactions, such as Alfven transient time, loop-loop configuration, and current strength.
