The multidisciplinary and multiobjective optimization design system based on the self-adaptive multi-objective differential evolution(SMODE)algorithm
cubic non-uniform B-spline curves based surface modeling technology
and aerodynamic and strength performance evaluation of turbine stage was developed for the optimization of long blade turbine stages. The aerodynamic performance of the designed long blade turbine stage is evaluated by the three-dimensional Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes(RANS)solution. The strength of the long blade is obtained using the finite element analysis approach. The optimization design objectives of the turbine stage are the maximization of specific power and the minimization of maximum von Mises stress. The design variables are determined by the stator and rotor blade parameterization method. With the present optimization system
seven Pareto solutions of the long blade stage were obtained. The three typical Pareto solutions were selected to analyze the aerodynamic and strength performance of the optimized blade geometry and to compare with the original design. The results show that the aerodynamic and strength performance of the Pareto solutions obtained are superior to the original design
thus confirming the availability of the present multidisciplinary and multiobjective optimization design system for long blade turbine stages.
