Abstract: We present simulations of the long-term evolution of cooling flow clusters containing a powerful FR-II radio source. The radio source has, as expected, a dramatic effect on the cluster for the period the source is initially expanding dragging cool gas from the centre of the cluster to large cluster radii. More surprisingly, the effects of the radio source can persist for periods long compared to the life-time of the source effecting both the cooling flow and the symmetry of the X-ray emission.
