Abstrakt: We calculate a series of synthetic spectra from outflows originating from the obscuring torus in active galactic nuclei (AGN). Such modeling includes 2.5D hydrodynamical simulations of an X-ray excited torus wind, including the effects of X-ray heating, ionization, and radiation pressure. 3D radiation transfer calculations are performed in the 3D Sobolev approximation. Synthetic X-ray line spectra and individual profiles of several strong lines are shown at different inclination angles, observing times, and for different characteristics of the torus.
