Abstract: Recent developments based on relativistic hydrodynamic models in high energy heavy ion collisions are discussed. I focus especially on how hydrodynamics works at RHIC energies and how one can use the most of it in the analyses of jet quenching and thermal electromagnetic radiations. I also comment on the improvement of initial conditions and viscosity in hydrodynamic models.
