A novel accelerated convergence method for solving adjoint equations based on modal reduction
PHYSICS OF FLUIDS(2024)
摘要
The efficiency of adjoint-based aerodynamic shape optimization depends critically on the solution efficiency of adjoint equations. In this letter, we employ the Proper Orthogonal Decomposition (POD) method to analyze the adjoint field samples and project them from the physical space into a low-order modal space. Subsequently, the full-order adjoint equations are reduced to low-order equations using the POD modes. Thus, we can efficiently predict the initial values for pseudo-time marching, thereby accelerating the solution of adjoint equations. Results indicate that the high-order POD modes are crucial for constructing the low-dimensional system. Moreover, this method can be seamlessly integrated with our previously established Dynamic Mode Decomposition (DMD) acceleration method to form a POD+DMD acceleration approach. Application of this approach to the flow past a National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics 0012 airfoil demonstrates a noteworthy 80.9% reduction in iteration numbers when solving the adjoint equations. Even for the airfoil located on the upper boundary of sampling space, the number of iterations is still reduced by 72.6%. Therefore, we believe that the proposed method holds significant promise for improving the efficiency of adjoint-based aerodynamic shape optimization in future research.
