摘要
High-fidelity aerodynamic optimization of compressors is afflicted by the"curse of dimensionality",which limits its engineering applications.This paper proposes a new multi-degrees-of-freedom(MDOF)surface parameterization method that combines the characteristics of conventional surface parameterization methods,low-dimensionality and surface smoothness,with the advantages of design flexibility and ease of construction.The proposed method is applied to the high-fidelity aerodynamic optimization of Rotor37.An optimized solution is obtained within 111 h by combining a phased optimization strategy based on the idea of modal optimization.To explore a better way of setting the control variables of the blade body,two methods of varying the control points of the suction and pressure surfaces,independent change and synchronous change,are compared.Synchronous change has better flexibility,and under the condition of satisfying the constraints,it increases the efficiency at the design point by 2.2%and the surge margin by 0.5%.This demonstrates the effectiveness of the proposed method in the high-fidelity aerodynamic optimization of compressors.It also provides technical support to solve the"curse of dimensionality"problem.
