A gradual rise and fall flare, with a duration of about one hour was observed on June 10, 1980 in the radio (Toyokawa and VLA), optical (Bing Bear) and XUV (SMM satellite) ranges of wavelengths. The flare developed as a large loop connecting two regions of opposite polarity in a pre-exisisting active region. A model of the differential emission measure of the loop observed at three different stage of the flare is deduced from the analysis of the XUV images in C IV (1549 A), O VIII (18.97 A), Ne IX (13.45 A), Mg XI (9.17 A) and Si XIII (6.65 A) emission lines. The differential emission measure as a function of temperature is controlled by the conductive flux via the temperature gradient; the evaluation of the divergence of the conductive flux is used in the energy balance to have information on the power deposition function.
