Abstract:
Accurate aerodynamic characteristic data under different conditions is the prerequisite and fundamental guarantee for the fast design of a flight vehicle, the improvement of a control system, the evaluation of performances and performance appraisal. The cross synthesis between the machine learning technology (ML) based on deep neural network (DNN) and fluid mechanics is developing fast and has achieved remarkable progresses in the modification of turbulence models, modeling of systems, prediction of the aerodynamic and aeroacoustic characteristics, optimization of control parameters and reconstruction of the flow field. To effectively apply the powerful representative capability of DNN, according to the demand of intelligent optimization and design of weapon bays, this paper first established a database of aerodynamic loads for flows past cavities and then built deep forward neural network model for the prediction of aerodynamic loads. To enhance the robustness of the model, random search and Bayesian optimization are introduced during the training of the model. Numerical results show that the trained DNN model is able to predict the aerodynamic loads and aeroacoustic characteristics accurately and efficiently, which provides a useful tool for the prediction and control of the aeroacoustic characteristics of the cavity.
