Far UV emission lines of three late type stars, two dwarfs, and one subgiant were analyzed to determine the structure of their outer atmospheres. Emission line fluxes were used to find the emission measure distributions. A sample of transition region models was derived, using three boundary values of the electron pressure. The temperature gradients reach a maximum value at a temperature which depends only on the emission measure. The steep temperature gradient models give an impossible negative energy input at temperatures around 100,000 K. However, the radiation losses exceed the net conductive fluxes at low Te.
