In the present paper, a double multiple-relaxation-time lattice Boltzmann simulation and response surface optimization are performed to optimize the performance of a novel active micropump-mixer at high-Peclet number flows. The micropump-mixer is comprised of rotationally oscillating rectangular stirrer and two identical square rotors. Effects of three important non-dimensional parameters of the stirrer, including its diameter , maximum velocity , and amplitude are investigated on the mean mixing efficiency , time-averaged of the instantaneous dimensionless averaged velocity , mixing energy cost and pumping energy cost . All calculations are carried out for the non-dimensional and in the range of , and for in the range of 0.5−0.9, at fixed Reynolds and Peclet numbers of and . Results indicated that increases with , and especially with , while it displays a non-monotonic behavior with . Furthermore, and decrease with increasing and . However, is not influenced by variations, but shows a decrease-increase trend with increasing . The increases with increasing of all three parameters. Finally, optimization results indicated that non-dimensional values of 0.5, 0.702 and 1 respectively for , and are optimum values for multiple-response optimization.
