Since the viscous effect increases as the size of device decreases, viscous-driven micropump is a promising mechanism in microscale applications. In the present study, a dual-rotor type pump which contains two counter-rotating cylinders for improving performance characteristics is proposed. First, for flows in the single-rotor type pump, the present unstructured grid simulation method is validated by comparing its results to the previous results. Next, the performance of the dual-rotor type pump is evaluated by the parametric studies and is compared to that of the previous single-rotor type pump. The flow characteristics are qualitatively similar to those of single-rotor type pump. However, the performance of the micropump with tandem rotors is still better than that of previous pumping type, e.g. much larger flow rate, smaller driving region, higher efficiency, and wider operation range.
