Multifidelity Response Surface Approximations for the Optimum Design of Diffuser Flows
Abstract Response surface methods use least-squares regression analysis to fit low-order polynomials to a set of experimental data. It is becoming increasingly more popular to apply response surface approximations for the purpose of engineering design optimization based on computer simulations. However, the substantial expense involved in obtaining enough data to build quadratic response approximations seriously limits the practical size of problems. Multifidelity techniques, which combine cheap low-fidelity analyses with more accurate but expensive high-fidelity solutions, offer means by which the prohibitive computational cost can be reduced. Two optimum design problems are considered, both pertaining to the fluid flow in diffusers. In both cases, the high-fidelity analyses consist of solutions to the full Navier-Stokes equations, whereas the low-fidelity analyses are either simple empirical formulas or flow solutions to the Navier-Stokes equations achieved using coarse computational meshes. The multifidelity strategy includes the construction of two separate response surfaces: a quadratic approximation based on the low-fidelity data, and a linear correction response surface that approximates the ratio of high-and low-fidelity function evaluations. The paper demonstrates that this approach may yield major computational savings.
