A Rapid Approach to the Aerodynamic Design of a Flexible High-Lift Wing

Abstract: The development and application of a rapid methodology for the optimization of HighLift configurations is here presented. The proposed framework includes a quasi-threedimensional method to simulate the aerodynamic performance, a rapid method for the estimation of the static aero-elastic effects, and two multi-objective optimization algorithms: the well-know NSGA-II and the innovative multi-objective Tabu Search. After an extensive validation study of both the aerodynamic simulation and the aero-structure coupl… Show more

“…3 The complexity of their design promotes the use of optimizer. [4][5][6] Furthermore, the aerodynamic flow around such geometries is very complex to model: the spatial discretization, known as meshing, is a complex task, and the physics of the flow intricate. 7,8 A couple of decades ago, the estimation of their performances was mainly performed with wind tunnel, a long and costly process.…”

“…The aerodynamic design was built around the quasi-3D method from the early stages of the design process to obtain a pre-optimised shape that was wind tunnel tested. Reference [10] exercised the quasi-3D method for the optimisation of a flexible high-lift wing configuration. Another application concerning drag minimization was presented in Ref.…”
