Resumen: A numerical description, based on the Boussinesq equations, is given for the steady free convection ¯ow due to a point source of heat and heated spheres. We begin with the non-dimensional formulation of the problem for the point source giving the numerical solution for a wide range of values of the Prandtl number, the remaining parameter. The analytical description of the temperature and ¯ow ®elds close to the point source includes constants that are evaluated numerically and are used to obtain the ¯ow ®eld around heated spheres for small Grashof numbers, and the correction of the Nusselt numb...
