Adjoint-Based Sensitivity Analysis for Airfoil Flow Control Aiming at Lift-to-Drag Ratio Improvement

What is it about?

Sensitivities of drag and lift to body force and blowing/suction on airfoils are investigated based on a continuous adjoint method. Effective distibutions of body force and blowing/suction for lift-to-drag ratio are identified with the information of decomposed contributions.
