Description
Here we present the steady-state numerical solution and two-dimensional hydrodynamic calculations of supergalactic winds, taking into consideration strong radiative cooling. The two possible outcomes: quasi-adiabatic and strongly radiative flows, are thoroughly discussed, together with their implications on the appearance of supergalactic winds in both the X-ray and visible line regimes.
