This thesis is concerned with the theory and application of continuous adjoint shape and topology optimization for heating, ventilation and air-conditioning components of aircrafts. The focal point is the applicability of adjoint theory to industrial practice, referring to step size computation for the gradient descent, design constraints and a correct computation of the gradient from the sensitivity. The implemented approaches are validated and verified via simulation of proper fluid dynamic test-cases. The arising framework is applied to industrial cases of aircraft components.
