최대 이륙중량 55 kg에 최대 순항속도가 180 km/h이고 수직이착륙이 가능한 쿼드 틸트 프롭로터 무인기에 적용할 프롭-블레이드 단면 설계를 수행하였다. 먼저 프롭-블레이드 단면 설계수행을 위한 설계 프로세스를 수립하고 단면 설계에 필요한 요구도를 식별하였으며 식별된 요구도 만족을 위한 단면 설계를 수행하였다. 단면 설계 결과를 분석하기 위하여 유한요소 단면해석 프로그램을 활용하여 인장/굽힘/뒤틀림 강성 및 단위길이 당 중량, 탄성 축 등을 포함한 주요설계 인자들을 도출하였으며, 이 과정에서 프롭-블레이드의 설계 중량을 예측하였다. 그리고 도출된 설계 인자들을 로터시스템 통합 해석 프로그램에 적용하여 프롭-블레이드 운영 환경에서의 동적 안정성을 분석하였으며, 로터시스템 통합 해석 프로그램을 통해 분석된 프롭-블레이드 하중을 활용하여 2차원 단면 구조 해석을 수행하여 프롭-블레이드 구조 안전성을 확인하였다. 이러한 단면 설계/해석 과정에서 설계 요구도를 만족시키지 못하거나 다른 구성품에 부정적 영향을 준 설계 결과에 대해서는 설계 변경을 수행하였으며, 이를 통해 요구도를 만족시켰다.

This present work is to find optimum design of a NACA65 axial fan blade with weighted average surrogate model. The numerical analysis by Reynolds-average Navier-Stokes equations with shear stress turbulence(SST) is discretized by finite volume approximations and solved on hexahedral grids for flow analysis. The blade aerodynamic shape is modified by six design variables for the optimization. The blade profile as well as stacking line is modified to enhance blade total efficiency. Six design variables, airfoil maximum camber, maximum camber location, leading edge radius, trailing edge radius, lean angle at 50% span and lean angle at 100% span, are selected for blade profile to enhance the total efficiency. The PBA model which is basically weighted average of the basis surrogates is used to find the optimal design in the design space from the constructed response surface model for the objective function. By the optimization, the total efficiency is increased by 1.4%.

Surrogate model based shape optimization methodology to enhance performance of a centrifugal pump has been implemented in this work. Design variables, such as blade number and blade angles defining the pump impeller blade shape were selected and a three-level full factorial design approach was used for efficiency enhancement. A three-dimensional simulation using Reynolds-averaged Navier Stokes (RANS) equations for the performance analysis was carried out after designing the geometries of the impellers at the design points. Standard $k-{\varepsilon}$ turbulence model was used for steady incompressible flow simulations. The optimized impeller incurred lower losses by shifting the trailing edge towards the impeller pressure side. It is observed that the surrogates are problem dependent and most accurate surrogate does not deliver the best design always.

Recently, it is required to design higher stage pressure ratio compressor while maintaining equal adiabatic efficiency. To increase the stage pressure ratio, blade rotational speed or diffusion factor should be increased. In the case of increasing rotational speed, relative speed of flow at blade leading edge is well supersonic. In supersonic blade, total pressure loss is mainly due to shock wave and blade leading edge thickness should be very thin to minimize the shock wave loss. As a result, the blade is like to be week in terms of mechanical strength and the manufacturing cost is very high because NC machining is necessary. It is also one of big hurdle to overcome to make small compressor. In this paper, the effects of blade leading edge to the performance of supersonic blade In terms of total pressure loss. The efficiency of already known method to make thin blade leading edge from the casted blade with rather thick leading edge thickness is also assessed.

This paper presents a design optimization of a new Advanced Active Blade Twist (AATR-II) blade incorporating single crystal Macro Fiber Composites (MFC) and conducts vibratory loads reduction analysis using an obtained optimal blade configuration. Due to the high actuation performance of the single crystal MFC, the AATR blade may reduce the helicopter vibration more efficiently even with a lower input-voltage as compared with the previous ATR blades. The design optimization provides the optimal cross-sectional configuration to maximize the tip twist actuation when a certain input-voltage is given. In order to maintain the properties of the original ATR blade, various constraints and bounds are considered for the design variables selected. After the design optimization is completed successfully, vibratory load reduction analysis of the optimized AATR-II blade in forward flight condition is conducted. The numerical result shows that the hub vibratory loads are reduced significantly although 20% input-voltage of the original ATR blade is used.

The wind turbine blade is a very important part of the rotor. Extraction of energy from wind depends on the design of blade. In this work, the analysis is done on a blade of length 38.95 m which is designed for V82-1.65 MW horizontal axis wind turbine (supplied by Vestas). The airfoil taken for the blade is NACA 634-221 which is same from root to tip. The analysis of designed blade is done in flap-wise loading. Two shapes of the spar are taken, one of them is of square shape and the other one is combination of square and cross shape. The blade and spar are of the same composite material. The Finite element analysis of designed blade is done in ANSYS. This work is focused on the two segments of blade, root segment and transition segment. Result obtained from ANSYS is compared with the experimental work.

An active trailing-edge flap blade named as Seoul National University Flap (SNUF) blade is designed for reducing helicopter vibratory loads and the relevant aeroacoustic noise. Unlike the conventional rotor control, which is restricted to 1/rev frequency, an active control device like the present trailing-edge flap is capable of actuating each individual blade at higher harmonic frequencies i.e., higher harmonic control (HHC) of rotor. The proposed blade is a small scale blade and rotates at higher RPM. The flap actuation components are located inside the blade and additional structures are included for reinforcement. Initially, the blade cross-section design is determined. The aerodynamic loads are predicted using a comprehensive rotorcraft analysis code. The structural integrity of the active blade is verified using a stress-strain recovery analysis.

Surrogate modeling is applied to a compressor blade shape optimization to modify its stacking line and thickness to enhance adiabatic efficiency and total pressure ratio. Six design variables are defined by parametric curves and three objectives; efficiency, total pressure and a combined objective of efficiency and total pressure are considered to enhance the performance of compressor blade. Latin hypercube sampling of design of experiments is used to generate 55 designs within design space constituted by the lower and upper limits of variables. Optimum designs are found by formulating a PRESS (predicted error sum of squares) based averaging (PBA) surrogate model with the help of a gradient based optimization algorithm. The optimum designs using the current variables show that, to optimize the performance of turbomachinery blade, the adiabatic efficiency objective is improved substantially while total pressure ratio objective is increased a very small amount. The multi-objective optimization shows that the efficiency can be increased with the less compensation of total pressure reduction or both objectives can be increased simultaneously.
