We present simulations of line-profile variations of Silicon lines in slowly-rotating non-radially pulsating β Cephei stars and SPB stars. Our goal is to examine how sensitive Si lines are to the non-adiabatic temperature variations at the surface of the star. We find that for realistic amplitudes of the velocity field, and for realistic amplitudes and phase differences for the non-adiabatic temperature and gravity variations, the Silicon lines variations are very little affected.
