Application of Genetic Algorithm For Nozzle Parameters Optimization of waterjet propulsion system

摘要：

Waterjet propulsion system have been increasingly used in the world due to its advantage of good maneuverability, operability, less vibration etc. The full understanding of waterjet reaction thrust is the preliminary step for the design of waterjet system. A recent research in this area is optimizing the nozzle structure of waterjet propulsion system to increase the waterjet reaction thrust as much as possible. In order to obtain the optimal parameters of nozzle, a new integrated method combining genetic algorithm with CFD simulation analysis is put forward in this paper. The integrated method will not only shorten the system design cycle, it will also develop optimization technique to realize the potential of computer based design automation. Finally, the optimal results are presented and discuss.
