AIRFOIL SHAPE OPTIMIZATION USING BÉZIER CURVE AND GENETIC ALGORITHM

There are different types of airfoil used in many applications such as energy production, aerospace, mixing fluid products. Design optimization studies still being carried out on the type structures. The section is most important factor affecting quality and efficiency performed work. aim this study shape to generate more lift than original creates. For purpose, Bézier curves polar points, XFOIL a flow solver MATLAB create codes using genetic algorithm. results show that created optimal produces shape. In study, design supported by analysis ANSYS Fluent.
