Abstract

The objective of this study is to develop efficient numerical method to enable solution of optimal control problems of Navier-Stokes flows and to apply these technique to the problem of viscous drag minimization on a bluff body by controlling boundary velocities on the surface of the body. In addition to the industrial importance of the drag reduction problem, it serves as a model for other more complex flow optimization settings, and allows us to study, modify, and improve the behavior of the optimal control methods proposed here. The control is affected by the suction or injection of fluid on portions of the boundary, and the objective function represents the rate at which energy is dissipated in the fluid. This study shows how reduced Hessian successive quadratic programming method, which avoid converging the flow equations at each iteration, can be tailored to these problems.

본 연구의 목적은 Navier-Stokes 유체의 최적 제어 문제의 해를 얻을 수 있는 효과적인 수치해석기법을 개발하고, 이를 물체의 항력(drag)을 최소화하는 문제에 적용하는데 있다. 본 연구는 항력을 줄인다는 산업적인 중요성과 함께 최적 제어를 위한 하나의 효과적인 최적화 기법의 모델을 제공하고 있다. 항력을 줄이기 위한 방법으로써 물체의 경계면에서 유체의 흡입(suction)과 방출(injection)이라는 기법을 사용하여 경계면에서 속도를 제어하였고, 목적함수로써 항력을 표현하기 위하여 에너지 소실의 변화율을 사용하였다. 컴퓨터 용량을 최소화하고 최적화에서의 해의 보장성과 경제성을 위하여, Navier-Stokes의 해석을 위하여 페널티 방법을 사용하였고 최적화 기법을 위해서는 SQP 방법을 사용하였다. 그리고 Navier-Stokes 유체는 대단히 비선형성을 나타내기 때문에 최적화를 수행하기에는 매우 힘들다. 이를 위하여 연속기법(continuation technique)을 사용하였다.
