Numerical Solution of Optimal Control Problems Governed by the Compressible Navier-Stokes Equations
Theoretical and practical issues arising in optimal boundary control of the unsteady twoâ\u80\u93dimensional compressible Navierâ\u80\u93Stokes equations are discussed. Assuming a sufficiently smooth state, formal adjoint and gradient equations are derived. For a vortex rebound model problem wall normal\ud
suction and blowing is used to minimize cost functionals of interest, here the kinetic energy at the ï¬\u81nal time.\u
