Heliospheric distribution of neutral He of galactic origin was calculated on a hot model for interstellar temperatures of 10,000 K, 15,000 K and interstellar velocities of 10 km/sec and 20 km/sec. The interaction of the resulting helium cone in the downwind region with the single-fluid distant solar wind is discussed. The relative increase of solar wind temperature due to friction with neutral He depends primarily on the interstellar temperature and not the interstellar velocity and is of the order of 10 - 30% at 10 AU, depending on the case.
