Aerodynamic shape design of transonic airfoils using stochastic optimisation methods and computational fluid dynamics

The present study investigates a number of airfoil design optimisation problems. A CFD method based on a finite volume method is used to solve the compressible Navier-Stokes equations. It is used to capture the details of flow separation, boundry-layer and turbulent flow characteristics that provide...
