Assume there is driving force
and and the wind is in steady state.
Use

Substitute (2) into (1)

Critical point will happen at:
With velocity determined by:
Different wind initial speed,
and will give very different profile. One solution of interest is: subsonic initial wind accelerate all the way to the critical point and become supersonic when at very large with andWhere
are initial radius and velocity.These driving force will affect mass loss rate significantly.
