I need a spacecraft to be pulled into the sun's gravity!

So, as I understand it, the spacecraft would need to move in the opposite direction to the orbit. Are there any calculations I could make to attach a clicking-tock onto this? If the spacecraft were travelling X kmh against its orbit at Y distance from the Sun, then it would take Z time to hit the Corona where at >5000ÂºC even tungsten/carbon composite materials would burn up. (The Parker Solar Probe will get to within 3.83 million miles to the sun, would that be a base calculation to help?)
