| Abstract: |
We performed a 3D MHD simulation from the photosphere to the inner
heliosphere to examine whether high-speed solar wind can be
reproduced near the equator in the minimum phase of the Solar
Cycle (SC) 23. We have incorporated external acceleration and
heating source terms into the momentum and energy equations,
respectively, in our simulation. Simulation results are compared
with satellite observations, which shows that equatorial
high-speed solar wind can be reproduced in the inner heliosphere,
although quantitative accuracy is not high. |
