The eigen-vibrational frequencies of Xiong Da-run's nonlocal and local convection models of solar envelope are calculated and compared. The differences between the observational and theoretical vibrational frequencies are less than 1%. They can be divided into two isolated groups. For modes with l ≥ 60, all the differences between observed and theoretical eigen-vibrational frequencies are distributed in a narrow and inclined belt in the (Δv ≈ v)-diagram. This shows that the theoretical model of solar convective region can approximately reflect the intrinsic structure of the sun in the region of r = (0.70 0.95)R&sun;. The discrepancies between the theoretical and observational frequencies come from the outer layers. For modes with l < 60, the theoretical vibrational frequency is smaller than the observational one. This implies that the temperature of the upper part of the convectively unstable region is rather low. The frequency difference is more dispersed in the local convection model than in the nonlocal convection model. For the intermediate- and low-frequency ranges (v < 3000), the difference between the two models is small, while for the high-frequency range (v ≥ 3000) the frequency in the local model is higher than in the nonlocal model. This means that the temperature of the radiation region beneath the convective region is higher in the local convection model than in the nonlocal convection model. The nonlocal model is nearer to the observation than the local model.
