Aerodynamic Optimal Shape Design Based on Body-Fitted Grid Generation

Table 10

Comparison of the pressure at the maximum thicknesses of the airfoil surface (upper and lower surfaces) for the initial, optimal, and desired shapes.

	Initial shape	Optimal shape	Desired shape	Difference (Pa)
Pressure at (Pa)				Difference in initial and desired = 669.98; Difference in optimal and desired = 1.31
Pressure at (Pa)				Difference in initial and desired = 569.85; Difference in optimal and desired = 3.71
