This is a short report on the study of internal motions of selected Planetary nebulae. We have studied this subject with both high (4 or 8 Å/mm) and intermediate (20 Å/mm) dispersion spectrographs. During the course of this work we noticed the existence of a high velocity gas flow distinct from the well known expanding gas, but with smaller velocities than stellar winds (Yadoumaru & Tamura 1994 on Abell 30; Otsuka & Tamura, 2001 on H 4-1). We present subsequent results obtained with the intermediate dispersion spectrograph about 10 selected planetary nebulae. The analyses were made by multiple Gaussian method on the emission line profiles of Hα. High velocity gas flows were recognized by a weak broad wing component.
