A flow caused by a line sink/source is considered in a channel of finite depth. The sink is placed at the bottom of the channel, and produces a free surface with a cusp pointing to the sink. Numerical solutions of this free-surface flow are computed by an integral equation method. The relationship between the nondimensional parameter Froude number F , based on the downstream flow, and the distance of the separation point of the cusp to the sink is presented as a plot from our computations. When we obtain the limiting cusp solution with .
