AbstractExplosive events are the earliest indicators of flare activity and potentially predict the imminent occurrence of a flare at a specific location. They are highly energetic small-scale phenomena which are frequently detected throughout the quiet and active sun. The observations show that explosive events are related to emerging magnetic flux and tend to occur on the edges of high photospheric magnentic field regions. The cancellation of photospheric magnetic flux are the manifestation of explosive events, so that they are identified as the magnetic reconnection of flux elements. We assume that emerging flux are convected to the network boundaries with the typical velocity of intranetwork elements. Two-dimension (2D) compressible MHD simulations are performed to explore the reconnection process between emerging intranework flux and network field. The numerical results clearly show the cancellation of magnetic flux and the acceleration of the plasma flow.
