Abstract

This contribution is a purely exploratory search to investigate the way the distribution of angular velocity inside the Sun's convection zone affects the energy transport. This is related with problems concerning the magnetic activity, whose appearance at the Sun's surface depends on the shape of the isorotation surfaces, and the latitudinal variations in flux. The proposed model is non-linear and axisymmetric.
