    The axisymmetric streaming Stokes flow past a hollow boundary of arc cross-section leads to a mixed boundary value problem that has only been solved for a hollow sphere with equal caps removed. Here a finite circular cylinder is considered and the solution is obtained via dual integral equations, involving modified Bessel functions, arising from Fourier transforms. Numerical values for the flux and drag are obtained, with particular interest accruing to the case of small pipelength for comparison with the spherical hollow boundary.
