An analytical method for predicting chaos in perturbed planar non-Hamiltonian integrable systems with slowly varying pa-rameters was developed. Based on the analysis of the geometric structure of unperturbed systems, the condition of transversely homo-clinic intersection was given. The generalized Melnikov function of the perturbed system was found by applying the theorem on thedifferentiability of ordinary differential equation solutions with respect to parameters.
