Abstract
Local and total Nusselt numbers were calculated for a potential flow a cross a flat plate for the case of large or moderate Peclet numbers (P e). The method of solution is based on multiple applications of the Wi ener-Hopf method by solving the integral equation for the power source function. Conformal transforms provide Nusselt numbers for cylinders of various cross sections. The accuracy of the method is on the order of exp(-2Pe).
