Scientific paper

A spherically symmetric two-fluid model for the solar wind with higher-order moments is presented. In this model, continuity, momentum, temperature and heat flux equations for two components (electrons and protrons) in steady solar wind states are simultaneously solved by using a time-dependent method. This work is used to compare solutions of the steady-state solar wind with and without higher order moments, and to study the effects of thermal conduction. The coupling between electrons and protrons is also given special attention. The numerical solutions of the steady-state solar wind in both subsonic and supersonic regions between the Sun and 1 AU are obtained and graphically illustrated.
