Aerodynamic optimization using high-order finite-volume CFD simulations

The growth of computer power and storage capacity allowed engineers to tackle engineering design as an optimization problem. For transport aircraft, drag minimization is critical to increase range and reduce operating costs. Lift and geometric constraints are added to the optimization problem to mee...
