Using of Particle Swarm for Performance Optimization of Helicopter Rotor Blades
As part of a research activity at Politecnico di Torino, aiming to develop multi-disciplinary design procedures implementing nature inspired meta-heuristic algorithms, a performance design optimization procedure for helicopter rotors has been developed and tested. The procedure optimizes the aerodynamic performance of blades by selecting the point of taper initiation, the root chord, the taper ...
متن کاملCFD Analysis on Aerodynamic Design Optimization of Wind Turbine Rotor Blades
Wind energy has been shown to be one of the most viable sources of renewable energy. With current technology, the low cost of wind energy is competitive with more conventional sources of energy such as coal. Most blades available for commercial grade wind turbines incorporate a straight span-wise profile and airfoil shaped cross sections. These blades are found to be very efficient at lower win...
متن کاملUltrasonic Shear Wave Anti-Icing System for Helicopter Rotor Blades
A new conceptual non-thermal anti-icing system for helicopter rotor blades is introduced. Theoretical calculations predict that certain ultrasonic modes generated by horizontal shear waves produce sufficient interface stresses between a host structure and ice to remove the accreted ice layer. Experimentally obtained ultrasonic shear dispersion curves are compared to theoretical predictions for ...
متن کاملSurrogate Based Optimization of Helicopter Rotor Blades for Vibration Reduction in Forward Flight
The effectiveness of surrogate modeling of helicopter vibrations, and the use of the surrogates for optimization of helicopter vibration are studied. The accuracies of kriging, radial basis function interpolation, and polynomial regression surrogates are compared. In addition, the surrogates for the vibratory hub shears and moments are used to generate an objective function which is employed in...
متن کاملEfficient Global Optimization of Helicopter Rotor Blades for Vibration Reduction in Forward Flight
The effectiveness of surrogate based optimization of helicopter rotor blades for vibration reduction using kriging global approximations is investigated. The search for the optimal design is conducted using two methods: (1) the “one-shot” approach in which the surrogate is optimized directly and (2) a method based on the expected improvement function which seeks to find optimal designs while re...
