Abstract: 

The method of multicomponent photoionization modelling of H II region surrounding the star-forming region was presented. Internal structure of H II region defined by evolutionary model of superwind «bubble» from the central star-forming region. To set the radial distribution of gas density, motion velocity of gas and temperature in region of free expansion of superwind we used model by Clegg and Chevalier (1985), and in the cavity — model by Weaver et al. (1977). The chemical abundances obtained from evolutionary population synthesis modelling were used in internal components of «bubble». External components of our models describe the thin layer of high-density gas formed by shock wave of stellar superwind from surrounding gas, and «typical» H II region correspondingly. Input parameters of modelling were set from pre-calculated evolutionary models of starburst based on three types of evolutionary tracks. Calculated evolutionary grid of low-metalicity multicomponent models. Also the comparative analysis of results of calculation and observable data is represented.

Keywords: H II region, low-metalicity multicomponent models, star-forming region
