摘要

A multi-objectiveMatar, C. Cinnella, P.Gloerfelt, X. shape optimization of a high-pressure turbine (HPT) vane for Organic-Rankine Cycles (ORC) is designed by fusing together high-fidelity, scale-resolving simulations, and specifically wall-resolved Large Eddy Simulations (WRLES), and Reynolds-Averaged Navier Stokes (RANS) solutions through a multi-fidelity co-Kriging surrogate model. Given the extremely high cost of WRLES at Reynolds numbers characteristic of ORC turbines, adaptive infill criteria are devised to smartly enrich the surrogate model during optimization on both levels of fidelity. While steady RANS solutions are known to fail in predicting key complex flow features present in turbine vanes, the present surrogate captures elements of the trends from the LES high-fidelity data and provides improved estimations of the better performing designs geometry parameters.
