A Newton‐Krylov algorithm is presented for the aerodynamic optimization of singleand multi-element airfoil configurations. The flow is governed by the compressible Navier‐Stokes equations in conjunction with a one-equation turbulence model. The preconditioned generalized minimum residual method is applied to solve the discreteadjoint equation, leading to a fast computation of accurate objective function gradients. Optimization constraints are enforced through a penalty formulation, and the resulting unconstrained problem is solved via a quasi-Newton method. Design examples include lift-enhancement and multi-point lift-constrained drag minimization problems. Furthermore, the new algorithm is used to compute a Pareto front for a multi-objective problem, and the results are validated using a genetic algorithm. Overall, the new algorithm provides an ecient and robust approach for addressing the issues of complex aerodynamic
