Scientific paper

A new method for the construction of empirical models of photosphere is developed starting with a first approximation called 'multicolumn'. The old idea of two or three column models is thus kept but completed by the following ideas. A good photograph of granulation is a fair representation of topological features along x and y. Vertical distributions T(z), P(z) cannot be very much different from distributions given by stellar atmosphere models in radiative and hydrostatic equilibrium. The sampling interval (200 km) is such that a 'granule' is represented by 10 to 30 columns. Horizontal transfer is computed explicitly at each point. Corrections are introduced in the model but are not of significant importance.
