✦ Synopsis

The mathematical basis for approximating the solar wind expansion as nearly radial is examined and defined, removing earlier restrictions thought to occur in the presence of a magnetic field and large variations in latitude. The equations and side conditions governing quasi-radial flow are derived and solved for a simple example to illustrate how this technique can be used for global models of the solar wind.

In Parker's original model, the solar wind is represented as a spherically symmetric hydrodynamic flow. The velocity is radially directed and decoupled from the magnetic field. The simple extension of this model to include a dependence on the polar angle, 0, is shown to be invalid for radial flow an
