The answer to your question is: nobody know in fact until now! This is an open problem in Astrophysics, but there are some hypothesis for the "Coronal Heating Problem" - Corona - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia -, how the Alfvén Waves - Alfvén wave - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia -, or solar nanoflares - http://www.scientificblogging.com/da...noflares_matte .
.
It's a good, deep and vast question. Truthful food for thought!
