Abstract
The far-IR ISOPHOT maps of the spiral galaxies M51 and M101 at 60, 100 , and at 175 mu m are analysed. For all areas in these galaxies the sp ectral energy distributions can be fitted with a single-temperature em ission curve. Colours and dust temperatures were estimated for interes ting sub-fields. The temperatures vary between 33 K for H II regions, and 28 K for the disk, arm and interarm regimes.
