A model for nova shells which is a combination of wind model and spherically symmetric, Hubble flow shell model, fits the light curve, image, and nebular line shape data for Nova V1974 Cyg 1992. The results show that after outburst the shell is ejected by a wind-like outflow with a linear velocity gradient, and that after 180 d this outflow stops. The shape of the elliptical inner boundary at this time determines the subsequent emission measure structure seen in images, light curves, and nebular line profiles.
