New framework fuses CFD and wind-tunnel data to boost aerospace model accuracy

Researchers have developed a novel data fusion framework to improve the accuracy of aerospace surrogate models by integrating experimental wind-tunnel data with computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations. The framework uses a correction network trained on wind-tunnel pressure-sensitive paint (PSP) measurements to adapt a pre-trained CFD surrogate model without requiring retraining. This approach significantly enhances agreement with experimental data, particularly in critical areas like the wing suction peak and shock location, while maintaining the surrogate's generalization capabilities and computational efficiency.
