Abstract:

Valveless pumping, also known as Liebau effect, can be described as the unidirectional flow of liquid in a system without valves that is caused by the asymmetry of placing of the periodically working pump. Recently, the research in this field has been reevoked, partially due to its possible application in nanotechnologies. In this paper, a configuration of one pipe and one tank is considered from the mathematical point of view. Qualitative properties of a class of nonlinear differential equations that model the assumed system configuration are investigated. New sufficient conditions for the existence of positive - periodic solutions are given. Correspondingly, exponential stability of periodic solution is treated. Presented results are new. They extend and complement earlier ones in the literature.
