A series of relatively simple empirical models of inhomogeneous stellar surfaces that allow granulation properties to be estimated also in stars for which detailed hydrodynamic models cannot yet be computed (e.g., the stars of spectral types A,F,G and K, reproducing observed line asymmetries) are presented. In these models, the stellar surface is divided into four components of different brightness and velocity, and the integrated stellar line profile is obtained as a summation of profiles from different components. By matching the synthetic and observed bisector patterns, estimates of the velocity and brightness amplitudes of stellar granulation can be obtained without a major computational effort.
