The gas motion in close binary systems has been investigated by several authors using a hydrodynamic method (e.g. Prendergast & Taam 1974, Flannery 1975, Lubow & Shu 1975, 1976). All these researches have, besides important results, a common deficiency: in the analysis of the gas motion, the extent and velocity of the stream in the neighbourhood of the inner Lagrangian point L1 was not calculated. They have been chosen on the basis of general assumptions (the same for all types of close binaries). A fundamental assumption was the small extent of the stream in the neighbourhood of L1 perpendicular to the line connecting the centers of the stars. At the same time the extent and the velocity of the stream near L1 exert a great influence on the further stream motion, on the formation of the circumstellar envelope and finally on the evolution of the close binary system. Therefore the first step in the investigation of the gas motion in a close binary must be the determination of the initial parameters of the stream in the neighbourhood of the point L1.
