Supersonic Nozzle Optimization Design with Spline Curves Fitting the Nozzle Profiles [PDF]
Supersonic nozzle contour optimization design was applied to 0.6m×0.6m continuous transonic wind tunnel to improve flow quality in the test section. The Mach number root mean square deviation with the design value was chosen as optimization target.
