This paper proposes a new approach for wind tunnel testing, which bases on multi-objective design exploration. This approach bases on wind tunnel tests for design objective function evaluation and uses a multi-objective design optimization method to define wind tunnel test conditions. In this paper, the proposed approach is applied to a design optimization problem of a plasma actuator applied to a NACA0015 airfoil model. Analysis of the objective function values and the design parameter values of the obtained non-dominated solutions shows the present approach enables efficient research based on wind tunnel testing for understanding aerodynamic phenomena.
