Abstract
Lip and diffuser are two important parts of S-shaped inlet, which are difficult to balance in the optimization design of S-shaped inlet. This paper presents an optimization method for S-shaped inlet. Firstly, the parametric models of the lip and the diffuser are established. Combining with automatic mesh generation technology, numerical simulation and genetic algorithm, an optimization platform of s-shaped inlet design based on Isight is established. Aiming at the design of inlet for an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV), compared with the prototype, the total pressure recovery coefficient of the optimized inlet obtained by this optimization method is increased by 1.5%, and the steady-state circumferential distortion is reduced by 58.6%. The wind tunnel experiment is carried out to obtain the aerodynamic performance of the inlet, and the experimental results are in good agreement with the numerical simulation results.
