A type of dependence of the expansion velocity in a planetary nebula on its radius Vs(Rs) is proposed which describes well the observed character of the envelope expansion. After initially increasing in the first expansion stage, the mass loss rate reaches a constant level in the second stage. Here, the accelerated expansion of the envelope is replaced by a steady expansion state, while the gas pressure in the compressed-shock region of the fast stellar wind begins to decrease.
