Machine learning optimizes nozzle performance with reduced computation

Researchers have developed a machine learning approach to optimize fluidic injection parameters for nozzle performance. This method utilizes a pretrained neural network to replace computationally expensive CFD simulations, significantly reducing optimization time. The system employs a prior-based prediction strategy for accuracy and uses back-propagation for efficient gradient calculation. In a test case, this approach improved the average nozzle thrust coefficient of a specific nozzle type by 1.14% across seven operating conditions. AI

    Machine-learning-based multipoint optimization of fluidic injection parameters for improving nozzle performance

    arXiv:2409.12707v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Fluidic injection offers a promising solution to improve the performance of the overexpanded single expansion ramp nozzles (SERNs) during vehicle acceleration. However, determining the injection parameters that yield the b…
