We present the two-dimensional inflow–outflow solutions of radiation hydrodynamic equations of supercritical accretion flows. Compared with prior studies, we include all components of the viscous stress tensor. We assume steady-state flow and use self-similar solutions in the radial direction to solve the equations in the r–θ domain of spherical coordinates. The set of differential equations have been integrated from the rotation axis to the equatorial plane. We find that the self-similarity assumption requires that the radial profile of density is described by ρ(r) ∝ r−0.5. Correspondingly, the radial profile of the mass inflow rate decreases with decreasing radius as . An inflow–outflow structure has been found in our solution. Inflow exists in the region θ > 65°, while above that the flow moves outward and outflow could launch. The driving forces of the outflow are analyzed and it is found that the radiation force is dominant and pushes the gas particles outward with poloidal velocity ∼0.25c. The properties of the outflow are also studied. The results show that the mass flux-weighted angular momentum of the inflow is lower than that of the outflow, thus the angular momentum of the flow can be transported by the outflow. We also analyze the convective stability of the supercritical disk and find that in the absence of a magnetic field, the flow is convectively unstable. Our analytical results are fully consistent with the previous numerical simulations of supercritical accretion flow. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
