The light curve analysis technique of Bornmann (1985) is extended to two components and is used to model the soft X-ray line fluxes observed during solar flares. This modification reproduces the light curves in all observed lines, in contrast to the single-component applications, which could not reproduce lines formed at the highest temperatures. Five of the six flares modeled by the modified technique show significantly better fits to the observed values when the two-component technique is applied. The temperature and emission measures of the hotter component always decay more rapidly than those of the cool component. Additional evidence from the two-component light curve model indicates that the isothermal assumption is not strictly valid. The presence of plasma at temperatures intermediate to the derived isothermal components is suggested.
