  We have calculated a series of models of outflows from the obscuring torus in
active galactic nuclei (AGN). Our modeling assumes that the inner face of a
rotationally supported torus is illuminated and heated by the intense X-rays
from the inner accretion disk and black hole. As a result of such heating a
strong biconical outflow is observed in our simulations. We calculate
3-dimensional hydrodynamical models, assuming axial symmetry, and including the
effects of X-ray heating, ionization, and radiation pressure. We discuss the
behavior of a large family of these models, their velocity fields, mass fluxes
and temperature, as functions of the torus properties and X-ray flux. Synthetic
warm absorber spectra are calculated, assuming pure absorption, for sample
models at various inclination angles and observing times. We show that these
models have mass fluxes and flow speeds which are comparable to those which
have been inferred from observations of Seyfert 1 warm absorbers, and that they
can produce rich absorption line spectra.
