An analytical investigation of extensional flow past a porous spherical shell of finite thickness with velocity slip at the surface is presented. The permeability of the shell varies continuously as a function of the radial distance. The flow in the porous region is assumed to obey Darcy’s Law. The drag has been calculated in terms of normal volume flux rate per unit area of the outer and inner surfaces. Particular cases of flow past a homogeneous sphere and no-slip boundary condition have been deduced.

AbstractThis paper is concerned with the flow of viscous fluids around and through porous bodies. Previous boundary conditions that have been used are discussed and a generalization of a boundary condition adopted by Beavers and Joseph, for plane boundaries, is proposed for curved surfaces. Using this condition the problem of slow viscous flow past a spherical shell is solved and several special limiting cases are considered.
