摘要
We present a systematic numerical study of two-dimensional axisymmetric accretion flows around black holes. The flows have no radiative cooling and are treated in the framework of the viscous hydrodynamic approximation. The models calculated in this study cover the large range of the relevant parameter space. There are four types of flows, determined by the values of the viscosity parameter a and the adiabatic index gamma: convective hows, large-scale circulations, pure inflows, and bipolar outflows. Thermal conduction introduces significant changes to the solutions but does not create a new how type. Convective accretion hows and flows with large-scale circulations have significant outward-directed energy fluxes, which have important implications for the spectra and luminosities of accreting black holes.
