Wind speed profile of the different wind models derived from the simulations shown in Figs. 9 and 10 (blue lines; constant or linearly increasing speed) and ranges of calculated escape velocities for this galaxy. The coloured areas show the escape velocities calculated for different values of the outer radius of the galaxy (Rmax = 60 kpc in grey; Rmax = 30 kpc in red; and Rmax = 10 kpc in green). In each coloured area plot, the radial distance R from the centre of the galaxy in the galactic plane (R = (r2 − z2)1/2, where r is the radius in spherical coordinates and z is the distance above the disc) increases from 1 kpc (top) to 10 kpc (bottom).
