Abstract
The results of a variety of simulations concerning the evolution of the hot component of the interstellar medium in elliptical galaxies are presented. The models cover the range in galaxy luminosity from 10 9 to 10 11 L ○. and include a range of star formation histories, present Type I supernova rates, and the effects of massive dark halos. All the model galaxies evolve through an early Type II supernova-driven wind phase. Following this stage the model galaxies evolve through a series of evolutionary stages characterized by the flow profile of the interstellar medium (i.e., partial winds, total subsonic winds, and transonic winds).
