We have constructed numerically global solutions of advective accretion disks around black holes that describe a continuous transition between the effectively optically thick outer and optically thin inner disk regions. We have concentrated on models of accretion flows with large mass accretion rates, and we have employed a bridging formula for radiative losses at high and low effective optical depths. Contrary to the models neglecting advection, we have found that global solutions exist for the extended range of accretion rates. The presence of the effectively optically thin regions in the innermost parts of accretion disks with intermediate accretion rates (∼10-50 Eddington units) results in a significant increase of the plasma temperature in those regions, and this increase can be discriminated in observations.
