Abstract

Automotive turbochargers operate over a wide range and require high efficiencies and pressure ratios. These conflicting requirements and a myriad of design parameters render iterative design techniques unfeasible. However, over the last decades the combination of numerical flow solvers and evolutionary algorithms has established itself as a viable option in the pursuit of reaching desired performance characteristics.
