On disk accretion

A simple but sufficiently accurate method for calculating an accretion disk structure is developed. The detailed analysis of the accretion disk is fulfilled by using this method. The effect of turbulent heat transfer on the disk structure is taken into account along with the effect of radiative transfer. The turbulent heat transfer is shown to play an important role, and may be even predominant in the inner disk region. The dependence of temperatureT and density on thez-coordinate is found. Simple analytic expressions are proposed for the run of the density in all the disk zones. It is shown that the inner disk region is convectively stable. The main parameters of all the zones are derived. The geometry of regular motions is studied; the regular hydrodynamical flows are found to appear directed both toward and outside the central object. A detailed comparison is made with the results of other authors.
