Originální abstrakt

This work focuses on the optimization of a hydraulic turbine diffuser, which is located behind the runner of the swirl turbine. Present paper extends our work in shape optimization using direct methods (namely Nelder-Mead method) and stochastic methods (namely Particle swarm optimization) coupled with CFD simulations. Both methods have their own advantages and disadvantages. Present work focuses on combination of particle swarm optimization (at the beginning of the algorithm) and Nelder-Mead algorithm (at the end of the algorithm). Diffuser will serve as the test case to demonstrate efficient coupling of the mathematical optimization procedure and CFD simulation. The main goal of this test problem is set to maximize coefficient of pressure recovery cp, which is the main parameter to judge the proper design of the draft tube. Results obtained with this new method will be discussed and their advantages/disadvantages summarized.
