The aerodynamic optimization of a Gurney flap attached to the NACA 0012 airfoil in rarefied gas flow is studied in this study. In order to investigate the effects of Gurney flap geometry (height, mounting angle, and mounting location) and angle of attack on the aerodynamic characteristics of the airfoil in the rarefied gas flow, the flow fields around NACA 0012 airfoils with Gurney flap attached are simulated by using the direct simulation Monte Carlo method. Furthermore, the multi-objective aerodynamic optimization of the airfoil with Gurney flap is performed at the single design point, and the Pareto front is obtained. Based on the benchmark configuration (obtained from the Pareto front), aerodynamic optimization by controlling the mounting angle of the Gurney flap and the angle of attack is investigated over a wide range of Mach numbers (ranging from 2 to 4) and Knudsen numbers (ranging from 0.024 to 0.24) by constructing an artificial neural network model. The results show that through optimization, the lift-to-drag ratio of the airfoil is increased by up to 29.25% under the combination of different Mach numbers and Knudsen numbers, which significantly improves the aerodynamic characteristics.
