The evolution of a binary system consisting of an 8 solar mass star and a 5.5 solar mass star is studied under the conservation approximation in the mass transfer phase Case B. Special attention is paid to the effects of heating of the components by irradiation and the release of accretion energy on the evolution of the binary system. It is found that the system with both the effects evolves slower and has a shorter orbital period when compared to that without the effects. The effects of heating and accretion on the structure and evolution of the mass-accreting star is quite significant.
