Abstract
We present the first results of simulations of giant polar plumes and coronal flows. We use a 2.5D axisymmetric MHD numerical model of an isothermal corona and slow solar wind. A plume is generated just above asmall magnetic bipole embedded in an unipolar flux region which is perturbed by Alfvén waves injected from the coronal base. The boundary conditions are transparent. The results are compared to those obtained previously with a 1D wind model in which plumes are generated as a consequence of variations of the heating and flux-tube expansion parameters.
