Can Fluent solve for the boundary layer between a fluid and a porous medium?

The goal is to model boundary layer suction on an airfoil. I have thought of using porous media to model the perforated section of the airfoil as a momentum sink. Will Fluent resolve the wall shear stresses at the air porous medium interface?
