Abstract
In the design of positive displacement compressors, the mathematical relationship between design parameters and design objectives is usually impractical and costly to be extracted, making the optimization process becomes a ‘black- box’ problem. In the available literature, the Bayesian optimization method, compared to other optimization techniques, has been proven as an accurate and efficient method to solve the ‘black-box’ problem. However, the application of such a method in the design of the rotary compressor has not been discussed in published papers. Hence, the current study is intended to employ Bayesian optimization to geometric design a class of positive displacement compressors, which is known as the limaçon compressor. In this paper, the geometric characteristics of the limaçon compressor are presented, and a function, which incorporates volumetric and geometric aspects, is employed to evaluate the optimization process and to reveal the optimum design scenario as per design requirements. A case study is offered to prove the validity of the presented approach.
