Several optimization approaches are presented in the paper, and
the results of each task depending on the optimization setup are
compared and discussed in terms of physical behavior and
convergence. The optimization problem is set up and solved for
several 2D compressor airfoils with different inlet parameters. The
airfoils were generated and their characteristics were built for
optimized solutions from different optimization approaches. The
novel topology for 2D compressor airfoil is proposed an and successfully utilized. The approach was tested for particular cases
and showed a gain in efficiency and flow turning up to 15%
(relative) compared with NACA-65 airfoils taken as the initial
design.
