Theoretical temperature, velocity and density profiles for the area above an optical depth of 10 to the minus 8th power in the sun were computed. An approximation for the coefficient of thermal conductivity was used; dissipation of shock wave energy as well as that of sound wave energy was taken into account and the height of shock formation was determined by a condition on the pressure. Comparison shows that our theoretical curves correspond very well with the observations.
