Abstract
The flow past a nonuniform porous spherical particle immersed in a uniform steady-state stream is studied in the Stokes approximation. For a power-law radial dependence of the particle permeability coefficient, an analytical solution for the velocity and pressure fields outside and inside the particle is obtained.
