  The central engines of Seyfert galaxies are thought to be enshrouded by
geometrically thick gas and dust structures. In this article, we derive
observable properties for a self-consistent model of such toroidal gas and dust
distributions, where the geometrical thickness is achieved and maintained with
the help of X-ray heating and radiation pressure due to the central engine.
Spectral energy distributions (SEDs) and images are obtained with the help of
dust continuum radiative transfer calculations with RADMC-3D. For the first
time, we are able to present time-resolved SEDs and images for a physical model
of the central obscurer. Temporal changes are mostly visible at shorter
wavelengths, close to the combined peak of the dust opacity as well as the
central source spectrum and are caused by variations in the column densities of
the generated outflow. Due to the three-component morphology of the
hydrodynamical models -- a thin disc with high density filaments, a surrounding
fluffy component (the obscurer) and a low density outflow along the rotation
axis -- we find dramatic differences depending on wavelength: whereas the
mid-infrared images are dominated by the elongated appearance of the outflow
cone, the long wavelength emission is mainly given by the cold and dense disc
component. Overall, we find good agreement with observed characteristics,
especially for those models, which show clear outflow cones in combination with
a geometrically thick distribution of gas and dust, as well as a geometrically
thin, but high column density disc in the equatorial plane.
