Abstract
Starting from contemporary observational data we have proposed a phenomenological model of energy release in solar flares with the following main points: (a) the primary energy source is the current sheet in the region of interaction and realignment of magnetic field lines (magnetic reconnection); (b) secondary transformations of the energy released produce the complex and variable signature of the flare in the solar atmosphere.
