Abstract
The steady, axisymmetric flow induced by a point sink (or source) submerged in an
unbounded inviscid fluid is computed. The resulting deformation of the free surface is
obtained, and a limit of steady solutions is found that is quite di erent to those obtained
in past work. More accurate solutions indicate that the old limiting flow rate was too
high and, in fact, the breakdown of steady solutions at a lower flow rate is characterized
by the appearance of spurious wavelets at the free surface.
