Abstract
We propose a new, simple and effective method for simulation of pictures of flux coming from gaseous-dusty disk structures caused by an embedded planet. We combine output of hydrodynamical simulation with temperature dependent Planck function for each mass cell and integrate flux to derive pictures of protoplanetary disk with planet. We present and discuss simulated images of Earth, 1 and 1.5 Jupiter mass planets. Such images points out current needs in development of high resolution imaging technology and may serve as templates to generate visibility patterns for forthcoming interferometers.
