Gradient-Free and Gradient-Based Optimization of a Radial Turbine

A turbocharger’s radial turbine has a strong impact on the fuel consumption and transient response of internal combustion engines. This paper summarizes the efforts to design a new radial turbine aiming at high efficiency and low inertia by applying two different optimization techniques to a paramet...
