FloGen

FlowGen is a universal flowfield generator based on machine learning and implentmented in Pytorch.

  • It differs from other data-driven flowfield generators that it introduce physics knowledge to enhance the predicting accuracy and generaliztion capability.
  • It has been applied to the prediction of airfoil, wing and single expansion ramp nozzle (SERN).
  • It is successfull applied to gradient-free optimization and gradient-based optimization (with utilizing back-propagation) tasks such as optimizing transonic buffet onset and multi-design-point fluidic injection parameters.

You can find the documentation of flowGen here.

Datasets

The flowfield datasets to train all of our models are available upon request. Please contact Yunjia Yang (yyj980401@126.com) for the datasets. Details on the datasets can be found here.

Applications

Web-wing - Interactive Transonic Wing Design App

The physics-embedded transfer learning for transonic wing is demonstrated with a simple interactive app. You can modify the airfoil geometry, wing planform geometry, and wing operating conditions to see what will happen on the wing surface flow field. Feel free to play with it, and your knowledge on wing aerodynamics will grow.

Unfortunately, the author can not afford a server now, so the only way access to web-wing is running locally. You can find how to do it here.

The next step of the app is a gradient optimization tool for wing performance, which will come soon.
