Application of iSIGHT to Optimization Design of Torpedo Lineshape

An optimization design scheme is crucial for torpedo, however, there has been no any such method recognized so far. This paper presents a method for torpedo lineshape optimization design based on the iSIGHT. In this method, the optimization strategies of simulated annealing algorithm and continuous quadratic planning method are adopted, and the fluid analysis software Fluent is integrated to calculate the fluid parameters of torpedo body lineshape. The comparison of the optimization results obtained by both the presented and the traditional methods shows that the torpedo lineshape optimization method based on the iSIGHT is satisfactory and feasible.
