Harnessing The Power Of AI In CFD Analysis
Artificial Intelligence (AI) has exploded into almost every industry over the last few years and is expected to grow from $86.9 billion in revenue in 2022 to over $407 billion by 2027 [1]. This extraordinary growth may feel like it has sneaked up on us, but the machine learning modelling techniques that lie at the […]
The Continuous Adjoint Method For Optimization Problems
Aerodynamics is a discipline filled with optimization problems. Whether it is drag, lift or downforce, an aerodynamicists’ goal is to maximise the potential performance of an object within a set of constraints. To achieve this, the typical approach is to change an input variable and analyse the effect on the output. However, a more efficient […]
What is the Adjoint Method in CFD?
Every industry is trying to find new ways to improve performance, maximise productivity and increase efficiency. To achieve this, engineers, scientists and programmers are tasked with solving optimisation problems. The conventional way to optimise something in engineering is to change an input (typically a geometric parameter) and analyse its effect on the output (what we […]
Saving Energy and Reducing Faucet Pressure Losses with Continuous Adjoint Optimization
In the United States alone, individuals use an average of 88 gallons of water a day within their home [1]. Delivering that tremendous quantity of water involves a complex system of valves, pumps, and piping systems, each with their own engineer problems to solve. Conservation of potable water and reduction in energy usage to deliver […]
Surface Optimization with Continuous Adjoint
Engineers routinely seek to improve their designs in order to increase a device’s efficiency, reduce energy losses, and increase performance at a new operating point. This is of course when the right driving forces (business or engineering) exist and design improvements are economically feasible. Oftentimes, the methods we use to improve designs rely on the […]
