A new optimization algorithm is presented. The method is based on sequential application of a second-order Taylor'- series approximation to the airfoil characteristics. Compared to previous methods, design efficiency improvements of more than a factor of 2 are demonstrated. If multiple optimizations are performed, the efficiency improvements are more dramatic due to the ability of the technique to utilize existing data. The method is demonstrated by application to subsonic and trnsonic airfoil design but is a general optimization technique and is not limited to a particular application or aerodynamic analysis.
