Numerical Solution of Optimal Control Problems Governed by the Compressible Navier-Stokes Equations

  • Conference paper
Book cover Optimal Control of Complex Structures

Abstract

Theoretical and practical issues arising in optimal boundary control of the unsteady two-dimensional compressible Navier-Stokes equations are discussed. Assuming a sufficiently smooth state, formal adjoint and gradient equations are derived. For a vortex rebound model problem wall normal suction and blowing is used to minimize cost functionals of interest, here the kinetic energy at the final time.
