Abstract
Some years ago the full non-linear equations, within the one mode approximation, describing finite amplitude convection in a compressive medium with polytropic structure were derived (Van der Borght 1977). It is the purpose of the present paper to report on the numerical integrations of these equations and to show how these can be used to construct a convective model of granulation. In this way one may gain some insight into the structure of the outer layers of the Sun.
