Functions (RBF) mesh morphing. The drag coefficient is defined as airfoil performance
parameter. The drag coefficient of airfoil is computed using three dimensional Reynolds
Averaged Navier Stokes (RANS) solver with hybrid grid topology. Laminar model, k-ω SST
and k-ω Transition SST turbulence models are studied on the baseline blade configuration
to investigate transition location and flow separation. Drag coefficient is reduced by 4.5 …
