Aerodynamic Shape Optimization Design of the Swept Wing Based on the Kriging Surrogate Model

Abstract:

The aerodynamic shape optimization design system was established in this paper. In the system, the RANS equation was used for solving the flowing; the free form deformation (FFD) method was used for the geometry parameterization, and the genetic algorithm was used for the optimization search. For the reducing of the time cost, the Kriging model was used for the surrogate model instead of the CFD simulation during the optimization design. The aerodynamic shape design of a swept wing was presented which used the system, and the result indicated that the 14% drag coefficient was reduced at the cruise conditions, which proved the validity of the system.
