| Abstract: | A short survey is presented of dynamical (and thermodynamical) issues relevant to outflows in Seyfert galaxies like NGC 1068.
Numerical simulations incorporating both realistic radiative heating and cooling, and angular momentum, show that the fraction
of injected gas which escapes in a wind is very sensitive to both the injection pressure and the gas's angular momentum. Radiation
pressure acting through a variety of atomic opacity processes may also be important.
