The propagation of energetic particles in the heliosphere is to a large extent influenced by the heliospheric magnetic field. The particle flux can be modelled numerically and the solutions can be compared with spacecraft observations. The HMF structure is still part of ongoing discussions, so different approaches need to be taken into account in particle propagation models.
In this contribution we present time-dependent numerical simulations of the 7 MeV electron flux in the heliosphere for a Parker and a Fisk-type HMF configuration. We compare our model results to Ulysses measurements.
