متن کاملCFD Based Wing Shape Optimization Through Gradient-Based Method
1. Abstract This paper deals with the optimization of shape of aerodynamic profiles. The objective is to reduce the drag coefficient on a given airfoil while preserving the lift coefficient within acceptable ranges. A set of control points defining the geometry are passed and parameterized as a B-Spline curve. These points are modified automatically by means of CFD analysis. A given shape is de...
