The main objective of this work is to present, for practical use, some original results about several qualitative properties of the solutions of a large class of degenerate diffusion-convection equations arising from fluid mechanics. Current interest in models of the simultaneous motion of two immiscible incompressible liquids results from its significance for many applied fields such as, for instance, the theoretical modelling of oil reservoirs where the pores of a threedimensional porous medium contain some hydrocarbon component (oil). In secondary recovery, a second inexpensive fluid (water) is injected into the porous medium in order to push the oil towards the producing wells.

The modified nonlocal feedback controller is used to control the production of drugs in a simple bioreactor. This bioreactor is based on the enzymatic conversion of substrate into the required product. The dynamics of this device is described by a system of two nonstationary nonlinear diffusion–convection–reaction equations. The analysis of the influence of the convection transport is one the aims of this paper. The control loop is defined using the relation, which shows how the amount of the drug produced in the bioreactor and delivered into a human body depends on the substrate concentration specified on the external boundary of the bioreactor. The system of PDEs is solved by using the finite volume and finite difference methods, the control loop parameters are defined from the analysis of stationary linearized equations. The second aim of this paper is to solve the inverse problem and to determine optimal boundary conditions. These results enable us to estimate the potential accuracy of the proposed devices.
