The unsteady viscous flow fields of dual flapping airfoils in tandem configurations are simulated by a Navier-Stokes Solver based on dynamic deformable hybrid meshes. Aerodynamic interactions of three motion models are studied including flapping fore airfoil with fixed aft airfoil, two airfoils flapping in phase and out-of-phase. The results indicate that the aft airfoil in the wake of the flapping fore airfoil has great influence on the aerodynamic performance. When the fore airfoil flaps with a fixed aft airfoil, the thrust generation and thrust propulsive efficiency were enhanced by 65% and 44% respectively, compared to that of single flapping airfoil. When the two airfoils stoke in phase, the thrust generation is twice over that of single flapping airfoil. However the out-of-phase stroking has relatively much lower thrust.
