Kinematic solar dynamo models with a deep meridional flow

We develop two different solar dynamo models to verify the hypothesis that a deep meridional flow can restrict the apperance of sunspots below 45 degrees, proposed by Nandy & Choudhuri (2002). In the first one, a single polytropic approximation for the density profile was taken, for both radiative and convective zones. In the second one, two polytropes were used to distinguish between both zones (Pinzon & Calvo-Mozo 2001). The magnetic buoyancy mechanism proposed by Dikpati & Charbonneau (1999) was chosen in both models. We, actually, have obtained that a deep meridional flow pushes the maxima of toroidal magnetic field toward the solar equator, but in contrast to Nandy & Choudhuri (2002), a second zone of maximal fields remains at the poles. The second model, although closely resembling the solar standard model of Bahcall, Pinsonneault & Wasserbug (1995); Bahcall, Pinsonneault & Basu (2001), gives solar cyles three times longer than observed.
