The mixed convection on a vertical slender adiabatic paraboloid with a tip heat source is studied. The boundary layer equations admit similarity solutions that are governed by a nondimensional free-stream parameter γ and a heat source parameter α. Numerical results show for aiding flow (α>0) the solutions are unique and for opposing flow (α<0) the solutions may be unique, dual, or nonexistent. Velocity and temperature profiles are obtained.
