Genetic Algorithm Optimization of the Volute Shape of a Centrifugal Compressor
A numerical model for the genetic optimization of the volute of a centrifugal compressor for light commercial vehicles is presented. The volute cross-sectional shape is represented by cubic B-splines and its control points are used as design variables. The goal of the global optimization is to maxim...
