Coupled with the two control curves parameterization method of turbine cascade nonaxisymmetrical end wall profiling
the global optimization method adaptive range differential evolution(ARDE)algorithm
and the Reynolds-Averaged Navier-Stokes(RANS)equation solver technique for evaluation of turbine cascade aerodynamic performance
an aerodynamic optimization design system for turbine cascade nonaxisymmetrical end wall profiling was developed to reduce its secondary flow loss and increase the aerodynamic efficiency. The feasibility and accuracy of the ARDE method and the RANS evaluation of turbine cascade were verified. The maximization of the total pressure coefficient of turbine cascade was selected as the design objective under the constraint condition of the outflow angle and mass flow rate. The design variables were the nonaxisymmetrical end wall profile parameterization variables of turbine cascade
and 20 design variables in total for optimum nonaxisymmetrical end wall profile was specified in this work. The aerodynamic design of turbine cascade with optimum nonaxisymmetrical end wall profile was conducted. The results show that
with the optimization design
the total pressure coefficient increases by 0.25% and the secondary flow loss is lower. The optimization design system developed for the turbine cascade with nonaxisymmetrical end wall profile was also validated.
