Claim 9:
10. A boundary-layer pump comprising: a pump body (22) configured to receive a rotor assembly (24), said rotor assembly comprised of an input shaft (46) configured to rotate the rotor assembly (24) and a laminar fluid flow channel (40), wherein said pump body (22) has an end (21) proximal to the input shaft (46) and an end (23) distal to the input shaft (46) at least one primary inlet port and at least one primary outlet port (34) wherein the rotor assembly (24) is comprised of a plurality of rotor discs positioned on a shaft-type rotor (27) wherein each of the rotor discs (25) are alternately positioned between a corresponding stator disc, said stator disc (23) coupled to the pump body wherein said laminar fluid flow channel (40) is comprised of at least one secondary inlet port (33) positioned on each of the rotor discs (25,) said at least one secondary inlet port (33) configured to allow fluid communication to the plurality of rotor discs (25), at least one secondary outlet port (35) positioned on each of the rotor discs (25) configured to allow fluid communication to the at least one primary outlet port (34).
