Abstract
Measurements of transverse energy flow are
presented for neutral current deep-inelastic scattering events produced
in positron-proton collisions at HERA. The kinematic range covers
squared momentum transfers Q2 from 3.2 to 
GeV2, the
Bjorken scaling variable x from
to 0.11 and the
hadronic mass W from 66 to 233 GeV. The transverse energy flow is
measured in the hadronic centre of mass frame and is studied as a
function of Q2, x, W and pseudorapidity. A comparison is made
with QCD-based models. The behaviour of the mean transverse energy in
the central pseudorapidity region and an interval corresponding to the
photon fragmentation region are analysed as a function of Q2 and W.
