Aerodynamic Configuration Optimization of a Propeller Using Reynolds-Averaged Navier–Stokes and Adjoint Method

The discrete adjoint method was used to optimize the aerodynamic configuration in order to increase the efficiency and precision of design. The fully unstable simulation of propeller rotation was avoided using the quasi approach. In the meantime, the gradient-based optimization approach was extended...
