Abstract
Filtration problems in porous media are important for studying the movement of groundwater in porous formations and the spreading of liquid concrete injected into porous soil. Deep bed filtration of a monodisperse suspension in a homogeneous porous medium with two simultaneously acting particle capture mechanisms is considered. A mathematical model of suspension flow through porous medium with pore blocking by size-exclusion and arched bridging is developed. Exact solutions are obtained on the concentration front and at the porous medium inlet. For the linear filtration function, exact and asymptotic solutions are constructed.
