| Abstract: |
Loss of angular momentum from a binary system is an important factor to study the evolution of the system. Therefore, three-dimensional hydrodynamic simulation of stellar wind from a binary system are performed, and the specific angular momentum of the gas escaping the system is calculated as a function of the velocity of the wind. Three cases of the mass ratio, q, are investigated, i.e. q = 1/3, 1 and 3. It is found that the hydrodynamic calculations gives somewhat lower values of specific angular momentum than the previous particle calculations. |
