Similarity solution of unaxisymmetric heat transfer of an unsteady viscous flow in the vicinity of an axisymmetric stagnation point of an infinite circular cylinder with simultaneous axial and rotational movement along with transpiration Uo is investigated when the angular velocity, axial velocity, and wall temperature or wall heat flux vary arbitrarily with time. The impinging free stream is steady and with a strain rate of k¯. The results presented are found by numerical integration. The local coefficient of heat transfer (Nusselt number) is found to be independent of time and place, though the cylinder wall temperature or wall heat flux are functions of both time and place.
