الوصف: | Aerodynamic optimization is a very actual problem in aircraft design and airfoils are basic two-dimensional shape forming cross sections of wings. Traditionally, the airfoil geometry if defined by a very large number of coordinates. Nowadays, in order to simplify the optimization, the airfoil geometry is approximated by a parametrization, which enables to reduce the number of needed parameters to as few as possible, while effectively controlling the major aerodynamic features. The present work has been done on the Class-Shape function Transformation method (CST) [1, 2]. Also, the paper introduces the concept of Genetic Algorithm (GA) to optimize a NACA airfoil for specific conditions. A Matlab program has been developed to implement CS into the Global Optimization Toolkit. The pressure distribution lift and drag coefficients of the airfoil geometries have been calculated using two programs. The first one is an in-house code based on the Hess-Smith [3] panel technique and on the boundary layer integral equations, while the second is an XFOIL program. The optimized airfoil has improved aerodynamic characteristics as compared to the original one. The optimized airfoil is validated using the Ansys-Fluent commercial code. |
