A shape optimization method for resistance reduction of local piping components with multiscale validation

, the optimized U-bend achieves a resistance reduction rate of 13-24% relative to the traditional circular U-bend. This study provides a reference for the low-resistance design and energy-saving optimization of building transmission and distribution systems.
