Abstract
This work concerns the analytical study of a uniform steady flow of an incompressible, viscous and electrically conducting fluid across an array of parallel porous cylindrical fibres subjected to a transverse uniform magnetic field with the assumption that the stress jump conditions for tangential stresses at the fluid–porous interface are applied. The effective medium approximation has been used for predicting the overall bed permeability (OBP) of fibrous filtration beds. The mathematically governed equations are formulated as Stokes’ equation in the fluid region, while Brinkman’s equation is in the porous regions. These equations have been solved using the stream function method, and the corresponding flow field expressions within each region are obtained. The derivation of the drag force acting on the surface of the porous circular fibre has been presented. The effect of various physical parameters on the velocity profiles is graphically illustrated and discussed. Interestingly, the OBP is considerably increased by implementing the jump boundary conditions, and this has significant applications in filtration systems design and may have physical implications in biological systems. This model is in agreement with the published results of the existing models.

As previously mentioned, expressing the coefficients indicated in the solution is cumbersome, hence we present specific coefficients employed in the drag as given in eq. (21)
