Abstract:
Aerodynamic flow past bodies of various geometrical shapes was studied, and the aerodynamic drag force was reduced through optimization of the body shape using a specially proposed method. The resulting drag force was compared to that for bodies formed by revolution of the profiles of well-known standard series. The study was performed using the Ansys Fluent software for isothermal laminar steady-state flows of incompressible fluid with constant density in a velocity range of 0–10 m/s. It is shown that the aerodynamic drag force for a body with the optimized shape is lower than analogous values for the bodies of revolution with Su-26 and NASA-0006 reference profiles. In comparison to the aerodynamic-drag-force level of 100% for the body of revolution with NASA-0006 profile, the drag force for Su-26 profile at airflow velocity of 10 m/s is 89.4%, while that for the proposed optimized body shape is 89.2%.
