Optimization of the LS89 Axial Turbine Profile Using a CAD and Adjoint Based Approach †

The LS89 high pressure axial turbine vane was originally designed and optimized for a downstream isentropic Mach number of 0.9. This profile has been widely used for computational fluid dynamics (CFD) validation in the open literature but very few attempts have been made to improve the already optim...
