We present numerical evidences for the validity of the inequality between the total mass and the total angular momentum for multiple axially symmetric (nonstationary) black holes. We use a parabolic heat flow to solve numerically the stationary axially symmetric Einstein equations. As a by-product of our method, we also give numerical evidences that there are no regular solutions of Einstein equations that describe two extreme, axially symmetric black holes in equilibrium.
