A solution is given in power series form to the problem of fully developed laminar flow in a uniformly porous tube. Although the general analysis is similar to a previous solution for a porous channel, the present tube results exhibit marked instabilities for wall suction, in contrast to the well-behaved channel results. A physical reason for the instabilities has been given in a recent paper by Weissberg, whose analysis of the inlet region indicates a breakdown in the assumption of fully developed flow.

A theoretical and experimental investigation of the flow in a porous tube with wall suction is described. The flow is steady, laminar, and incompressible with the fluid entering at one end of the circular tube and flowing out through the porous circumferential surface. The study is limited to an inlet velocity profile parabolic in shape and to the case of uniform wall suction.

A system for precision measurement of fluid velocity is developed and applied to determine the laminar flow distribution in a square duct. The experimental technique consists of measuring the Doppler shift of laser radiation scattered by particles moving with the fluid. From this frequency shift, the fluid velocity is inferred. Measurements in the entrance region and fully developed flow region of a square duct indicate that the velocity profile development takes place in a somewhat longer section of the duct than had been predicted. Measurements of the fully developed flow indicate that the optical technique used is capable of measuring velocity within an accuracy of at least 0.1 percent.

It is well known that solutions of many ordinary differential equations allow presentation in the power series form. In the paper we introduce and analyze rigorous conditions under which the later series (solutions) can be reduced to a finite sum of standard functions. Some areas of practical applicability of the proposed algorithm are discussed.
