We use hydrodynamical (SPH) simulations to investigate the effect of the impact of type Ia supernova ejecta on the main sequence companion star in the single degenerate scenario. We calculate the amount of hydrogen that is stripped from the companion star. We reproduce previous results that predicted a much larger amount of stripped material than found in observations. However, for more realistic progenitor systems, we find that the amount of stripped hydrogen is about a factor of 10 less. Our new results therefore make this scenario consistent with observations again.
