Numerical simulations of the formation and propagation of mass ejection, loop transients in coronal streamers are discussed. The simulations are accomplished with numerical solutions of the single fluid, ideal MHD equations of motion in the meridional plane. The streamer is produced by simulating the relaxation of an initially radial hydrodynamic flow coupled with a dipole magnetic field. The simulated transient then results from an energy release at the base of the streamer. The legs of the loop transient produced remain essentially stationary while the loop expands mainly in the radial direction with velocities of 400 to 750 km s-1. Once the leading edge of the transient has passed out of the lower corona, the initial streamer configuration is restored after 15 to 24 hours. A second energy release 2 hours later than, and with an energy release identical to, the first does not produce a significant coronal disturbance.
