We present an extension of our equilibrium model, initially applied to 51 Peg b (Goukenleuque et al. 2000), to other irradiated extrasolar planets with different orbital distances (up to 1 AU). The model yields the mean atmospheric thermal structure and predicts the reflected spectral flux as well as the thermal flux emerging from such planets, in the visible and in the infrared wavelength ranges.
