A modified two-step method for aerodynamic shape optimization is proposed, where proper orthogonal decomposition and automatic domain-decomposition techniques are adopted to accelerate flow and adjoint solutions in the second-step optimization. As the first step in this method, the initial optimization is first performed by a genetic algorithm coupled with a kriging model. Next, a reduced-order model is set up via proper orthogonal decomposition with the reuse of ready-made flow snapshots in the first-step optimization. A proper-orthogonal-decomposition Petrov-Galerkin method is investigated to provide fast flow predictions in the second-step optimization. With the assistance of an error estimation method and an automatic domain-decomposition method that are presented in this paper, the sensitive domain in the computational grid is split out. To improve the accuracy, predictions provided by proper orthogonal decomposition in the sensitive domain are further corrected by computational fluid dynamics modifications. Meanwhile, in order to accelerate gradient solutions, the adjoint equation of this proper orthogonal decomposition and domain-decomposition-based flow analysis method is derived and discussed. The optimization results of a two-dimensional airfoil design test and a three-dimensional wing design test highlight the efficiency of the proposed method when compared with results of either a gradient-free optimization method or a traditional two-step method.
