چکیده
The CFD analysis and optimization of multi-element airfoils are presented. Window-Embedment technique is used to automatically generate the grids along with the geometry evolving. The CFD code named NSAWET is employed for performance and flow field analysis. The Genetic Algorithms are used in along with gradient methods to get a good compromise of global optimization capability and efficiency. Man-in-loop idea is realized in the process to make the computer automated process practical and realizable. The results of single-point and dual-point optimization are compared.

متن کاملApplying evolutionary optimization on the airfoil design
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 n...
