The consistent treatment of the acceleration of the solar wind plasma in helmet-streamer coronal magnetic configurations is considered within the framework of the conductive, magnetohydrodynamic model equations. This represents a generalization of the isothermal, two-dimensional steady state solution of Pneuman and Kopp (1971). General analytical expressions and numerical procedures for the calculation of the transverse electrical currents entering Maxwell's equations are developed and presented. These procedures are first checked on the case of a simpler analytical model and next applied to helmet-streamer magnetic configurations.
