During this research, aerodynamic shape optimization is conducted on the Ahmed body with the drag coefficient as the objective function and the ramp shape as the design variable, while aero-structural optimization is conducted on NACA 0012 to reduce the drag coefficient for the aerodynamic performance with the shape as the design variable while reducing structural mass with the thickness of the panels as the design variables. This is accomplished through a gradient-based optimization process and coupled finite element and computational fluid dynamics (CFD) solvers under fluid–structure interaction (FSI). In this study, DAFoam (Discrete Adjoint with OpenFOAM for High-fidelity Multidisciplinary Design Optimization) and TACS (Toolkit for the Analysis of Composite Structures) are integrated to optimize the aero-structural design of an airfoil concurrently under the FSI condition, with TACS and DAFoam as coupled structural and CFD solvers integrated with a gradient-based adjoint optimization solver. One-way coupling between the fluid and structural solvers for the aero-structural interaction is adopted by using Mphys, a package that standardizes high-fidelity multiphysics problems in OpenMDAO. At the end of the paper, we compare and discuss our findings in the context of existing research, specifically highlighting previous results on the aerodynamic and aero-structural optimization of wind turbine blades. |
