A parametric method for optimal design of two-dimensional cascades, based on the coupling between a genetic algorithm and a commercial computational fluid dynamics code, is introduced. The results of cascade geometry optimization for a large range of inlet and outlet flow angle pairs are presented. The method is a simple as well as effective tool for the optimal design of cascades for axial flow pumps.

Abstract
A parametric method for optimal design of two-dimensional cascades, based on the coupling between a genetic algorithm and a commercial computational fluid dynamics code, is introduced. The results of cascade geometry optimization for a large range of inlet and outlet flow angle pairs are presented. The method is a simple as well as effective tool for the optimal design of cascades for axial flow pumps.File in questo prodotto:
