Hydrodynamic escape has important applications in the formation and evolution of planetary atmospheres. Solutions to the time-independent hydrodynamic equations are difficult to find due to the existence of a singularity point. New method to solve time-dependent hydrodynamic equations is developed and validated. When applied to extrasolar planets under intense radiation from parent stars (HD209458b), we tried to answer the following 2 questions: 1) are these planets undergoing hdyrodynamic escape; 2) how fast are they losing their mass. Simulation results are compared with observations.
