Heat transfer under conditions of plane potential flow past obstacles

An exact solution is given of the equation of convective heat transfer (mass transfer) under conditions of plane potential flow of incompressible liquid along a wall which has a bend in the form of a half-ellipse to present an obstacle to incident flow. The temperature of the obstacle surface is arbitrary, and the temperature of the rest of the wall coincides with that of incident flow. Particular cases of the constant temperature of the obstacle and of the sine distribution of its surface temperature are treated.
