چکیده

in this paper, lift and drag coefficients were numerically investigated using numeca software in a set of 4-digit naca airfoils. two metamodels based on the evolved group method of data handling (gmdh) type neural networks were then obtained for modeling both lift coefficient (cl) and drag coefficient (cd) with respect to the geometrical design parameters. after using such obtained polynomial neural networks, modified non-dominated sorting genetic algorithm (nsgaii) was used for pareto based optimization of 4-digit naca airfoils considering two conflicting objectives such as (cl) and (cd). further evaluations of the design points in the obtained pareto fronts using the numeca software showed the effectiveness of such an approach. moreover, it was shown that some interesting and important relationships as the useful optimal design principles involved in the performance of the airfoils can be discovered by the pareto-based multi-objective optimization of the obtained polynomial meta-models. such important optimal principles would not have been obtained without using the approach presented in this paper.

Optimization for Airfoil Design

A significant challenge to the application of evolutionary multiobjective optimization (EMO) for transonic airfoil design is the often excessive number of computational fluid dynamic (CFD) simulations required to ensure convergence. In this study, a multiobjective particle swarm optimization (MOPSO) framework is introduced, which incorporates designer preferences to provide further guidance in ...

The Effects of Shape Parameterization on the Efficiency of Evolutionary Design Optimization for Viscous Transonic Airfoils

The effect of airfoil shape parameterization on optimum design and its influence on the convergence of the evolutionary optimization process is presented. Three popular airfoil parametric methods including PARSEC, Sobieczky and B-Spline (Bezier curve) are studied and their efficiency and results are compared with those of a new method. The new method takes into consideration the characteristics...
