C. ; Gunkler, T. A. Ricchiazzi, P. J. During a flare, number mechanisms heat the chromosphere above its preflare temperature. Ricchiazzi Canfield (1983) have modeled response to processes related energetic thermal conductivity, enhanced pressure. present investigation is concerned with computation profiles for various models, thus providing their signatures. It shown that responds sensitively these processes. based on static models chromospheres which been obtained two limiting assumptions, taking into account hydrostatic equilibrium assumption heating has just turned on. After computing model atmospheres, theoretical line are generated each model.
