본 연구에서 익형 형상 설계를 위해 전역적 다목적 최적화 기법인 적응영역 다목적 유전자 알고리즘 코드를 개발하였다. 저마하수에서 최대 양력과 순항조건에서 최대 양항비를 동시에 만족시키기 위해 목적함수로 양력계수와 양항비를 선정하였으며, 익형 형상 설계를 위해 PARSEC 기법을 이용하였다. 그 결과 참조 익형 대비 나은 공력 특성을 나타내는 2개의 익형이 선택되었으며 최대 양력과 양항비는 첫 번째 익형에 대해 약 4.89%, 5.38% 증가하였으며, 두 번째 익형에 대해 약 7.13%, 4.33% 증가하였다. In this study, the real-coded adaptive range multi-objective genetic algorithm code, which represents the global multi-objective optimization algorithm, was developed for an airfoil shape design. In order to achieve the better aerodynamic characteristics than reference airfoil at landing and cruise conditions, maximum lift coefficient and lift-to-drag ratio were chosen as object functions. Futhermore, the PARSEC method reflecting geometrical properties of airfoil was adopted to generate airfoil shapes. Finally, two airfoils, which show better aerodynamic characteristics than a reference airfoil, were chosen. As a result, maximum lift coefficient and lift-to-drag ratio were increased of 4.89% and 5.38% for first candidate airfoil and 7.13% and 4.33% for second candidate airfoil.
