A fibrous porous medium with two length scales is modeled as a bed of porous cylinders aligned perpendicular to the flow of viscous fluid. The flow behavior is described using Stokes and Darcy flow equations in the regions around (higher length scale) and within the cylinders (lower length scale) respectively. The typical ratio of higher and lower length-scale regions enable us to invoke lubrication approximation and simplify the equations to develop a closed form solution for the overall permeability of this dual-scale porous medium. A parametric analysis is performed to explore the dependence of permeability on factors such as the volumetric ratio of higher and lower length-scale regions, permeability and size of inclusions in the smaller length-scale region. The analytical model is compared with the numerical results and the trend is compared with the experiments.
