Optimization of aerodynamic shapes using numerical methods has always been of engineering interest. This paper presents a highly efficient aerodynamic optimization method for hypersonic wings based on local piston theory. The objective of the optimization is to improve the aerodynamic characteristics of original airfoils or wings generated from NACA0012 while satisfying constraints on structure requirements. In the optimization procedure, a genetic algorithm is employed for optimum search, the Hicks–Henne bump function is used for airfoil geometrical modification, and local piston theory is used for unsteady pressure perturbations caused by geometrical modification from the baseline. Because unsteady pressure perturbations at supersonic or hypersonic conditions could be calculated by local piston theory based on initial flowfield results in the optimum searching process, only one steady-state solution without any use of moving or deforming grids is required. Therefore, the optimization method described in this paper is an extremely efficient technique that combines the advantages of steady computational fluid dynamics and the local piston theory and thus has very low computational cost in an optimum search process. Optimization results of airfoils and wings, including single and multipoint optimization for a flat wing without any sweep, and backswept wing, demonstrate the effectiveness and efficiency of the aerodynamic optimization method for hypersonic wings.
