Energy balance models of the chromosphere-corona transition region are computed for a segment of a coronal hole assuming a nonradial magnetic field geometry. The energy fluxes considered include radiation, conduction, convection and mechanical wave (e.g., Alfvén waves) heating. The calculated results show that the temperature is about 60% lower, the electron density is twice smaller and the thickness of the transition region is four times larger in the coronal hole network than in the quiet region. This atmospheric model can satisfactorily explain the distribution of emission measurements obtained from the EUV observations for T > 105K. In addition it is also found that the Alfvén-wave heating at the base of the transition region of a coronal hole may exceed the heat conduction.
