Airfoil designs4/7/2023 ![]() However, when the computational cost is taken into account, the performance of the three widely used algorithms is different from that in the benchmark tests. Similarly, the performance of NACA64418 is also improved with the proposed optimization algorithms. After the optimization, the S809 airfoil noise is decreased more than 0.9 dB, and the lift-drag ratio is improved 6.96% compared to its baseline in the given working condition. For the airfoil optimization of S809 and NACA64418, it is found that the SA is more efficient than the GA. Tested with multimodal functions such as Shubert function, however, it is found that the HC and SA failed to find the global optimum although the SA has better possibilities to jump out the local extremum than the HC. The results show that with functions representing relatively flat shape, the HC and the SA are faster to find the global optimum than the GA. In this study, we compared three heuristic optimization algorithms: hill-climbing algorithm (HC), simulated annealing algorithm (SA), and genetic algorithm (GA), using three test functions in the airfoil design optimization of the wind turbines. However, such computational requirement has not been fulfilled well because some major unpaired performances exist between the mathematical benchmarks and airfoil designs. The airfoil design optimizations are often limited due to the high computational cost and complex algorithm selections. ![]()
