Abstract

In order to solve the mesh generation problem for complex configurations in aerodynamic design and optimization of aero-engine compressor blades, a parametric mesh generation method is proposed. A detailed comparison is performed in the aspects of generation efficiency, mesh quality and simulation results between two meshes generated with Spider and NUMECA, given the same experimental conditions. The experimental results show that the proposed method can efficiently and automatically generate meshes with good quality.
