In this paper, the problem of heat transfer to laminar Poiseuille flow in a circular tube is discussed for the case of an insulated tube with a ring source of heat on the boundary. The solution is developed analytically for low values of the Péclet number, and formulae for calculating the eigenvalues and coefficients have been obtained. The temperature distributions in the neighbourhood of the source have been calculated for two values of the Péclet number. The extension to the case of arbitrary wall flux has also been discussed.
