✦ Synopsis

An analytica] study has been made to determine the heat transfer characteristics of a stagnation point ilow in which there are temperature-dependent h e a t sources or sinks. 1Results have been obtained for both strong and weak sources or sinks for a Prandtl number of 0.7. An analytical method, applicable to all Prandtl numbers, was utilized which circumvented the need for extensive numerieal solutions and whicb, at the same time, provided a closedform representation for the heat transfer. A few numerical solutions were carried out to veriIy the method.
