This article deals with approximating steady-state particle-resolved fluid flow around a fixed particle of interest under the influence of randomly distributed stationary particles in a dispersed multiphase setup using Convolutional Neural Network (CNN). The considered problem involves rotational symmetry about the mean velocity (streamwise) direction. Thus, this work enforces this symmetry using $mathbf{textbf{SE(3)-equivariant}}$, special Euclidean group of dimension 3, CNN architecture, which is translation and three-dimensional rotation equivariant. This study mainly explores the generalization capabilities and benefits of SE(3)-equivariant network. Accurate synthetic flow fields for Reynolds number and particle volume fraction combinations spanning over a range of [86.22, 172.96] and [0.11, 0.45] respectively are produced with careful application of symmetry-aware data-driven approach.

Convolutional neural networks (CNNs) have recently been applied to predict or model fluid dynamics. However, mechanisms of CNNs for learning fluid dynamics are still not well understood, while such understanding is highly necessary to optimize the ne twork or to reduce trial-and-errors during the network optmization. In the present study, a CNN to predict future three-dimensional unsteady wake flow using flow fields in the past occasions is developed. Mechanisms of the developed CNN for prediction of wake flow behind a circular cylinder are investigated in two flow regimes: the three-dimensional wake transition regime and the shear-layer transition regime. Feature maps in the CNN are visualized to compare flow structures which are extracted by the CNN from flow at the two flow regimes. In both flow regimes, feature maps are found to extract similar sets of flow structures such as braid shear-layers and shedding vortices. A Fourier analysis is conducted to investigate mechanisms of the CNN for predicting wake flow in flow regimes with different wave number characteristics. It is found that a convolution layer in the CNN integrates and transports wave number information from flow to predict the dynamics. Characteristics of the CNN for transporting input information including time histories of flow variables is analyzed by assessing contributions of each flow variable and time history to feature maps in the CNN. Structural similarities between feature maps in the CNN are calculated to reveal the number of feature maps that contain similar flow structures. By reducing the number of feature maps that contain similar flow structures, it is also able to successfully reduce the number of parameters to learn in the CNN by 85% without affecting prediction performances.
We investigate the applicability of machine learning based reduced order model (ML-ROM) to three-dimensional complex flows. As an example, we consider a turbulent channel flow at the friction Reynolds number of $Re_tau=110$ in a minimum domain which can maintain coherent structures of turbulence. Training data set are prepared by direct numerical simulation (DNS). The present ML-ROM is constructed by combining a three-dimensional convolutional neural network autoencoder (CNN-AE) and a long short-term memory (LSTM). The CNN-AE works to map high-dimensional flow fields into a low-dimensional latent space. The LSTM is then utilized to predict a temporal evolution of the latent vectors obtained by the CNN-AE. The combination of CNN-AE and LSTM can represent the spatio-temporal high-dimensional dynamics of flow fields by only integrating the temporal evolution of the low-dimensional latent dynamics. The turbulent flow fields reproduced by the present ML-ROM show statistical agreement with the reference DNS data in time-ensemble sense, which can also be found through an orbit-based analysis. Influences of the population of vortical structures contained in the domain and the time interval used for temporal prediction on the ML- ROM performance are also investigated. The potential and limitation of the present ML-ROM for turbulence analysis are discussed at the end of our presentation.
Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) equations are presently one of the most popular models for simulating turbulence. Performing RANS simulation requires additional modeling for the anisotropic Reynolds stress tensor, but traditional Reynolds stre ss closure models lead to only partially reliable predictions. Recently, data-driven turbulence models for the Reynolds anisotropy tensor involving novel machine learning techniques have garnered considerable attention and have been rapidly developed. Focusing on modeling the Reynolds stress closure for the specific case of turbulent channel flow, this paper proposes three modifications to a standard neural network to account for the no-slip boundary condition of the anisotropy tensor, the Reynolds number dependence, and spatial non-locality. The modified models are shown to provide increased predicative accuracy compared to the standard neural network when they are trained and tested on channel flow at different Reynolds numbers. The best performance is yielded by the model combining the boundary condition enforcement and Reynolds number injection. This model also outperforms the Tensor Basis Neural Network (Ling et al., 2016) on the turbulent channel flow dataset.

Advanced nuclear reactors often exhibit complex thermal-fluid phenomena during transients. To accurately capture such phenomena, a coarse-mesh three-dimensional (3-D) modeling capability is desired for modern nuclear-system code. In the coarse-mesh 3 -D modeling of advanced-reactor transients that involve flow and heat transfer, accurately predicting the turbulent viscosity is a challenging task that requires an accurate and computationally efficient model to capture the unresolved fine-scale turbulence. In this paper, we propose a data-driven coarse-mesh turbulence model based on local flow features for the transient analysis of thermal mixing and stratification in a sodium-cooled fast reactor. The model has a coarse-mesh setup to ensure computational efficiency, while it is trained by fine-mesh computational fluid dynamics (CFD) data to ensure accuracy. A novel neural network architecture, combining a densely connected convolutional network and a long-short-term-memory network, is developed that can efficiently learn from the spatial-temporal CFD transient simulation results. The neural network model was trained and optimized on a loss-of-flow transient and demonstrated high accuracy in predicting the turbulent viscosity field during the whole transient. The trained models generalization capability was also investigated on two other transients with different inlet conditions. The study demonstrates the potential of applying the proposed data-driven approach to support the coarse-mesh multi-dimensional modeling of advanced reactors.
The fast and accurate prediction of unsteady flow becomes a serious challenge in fluid dynamics, due to the high-dimensional and nonlinear characteristics. A novel hybrid deep neural network (DNN) architecture was designed to capture the unsteady flo w spatio-temporal features directly from the high-dimensional unsteady flow fields. The hybrid deep neural network is constituted by the convolutional neural network (CNN), convolutional Long Short Term Memory neural network (ConvLSTM) and deconvolutional neural network (DeCNN). The flow around a cylinder at various Reynolds numbers and the flow around an airfoil at higher Reynolds number are carried out to establish the datasets used to train the networks separately. The trained hybrid DNNs were then tested by the prediction of the flow fields at future occasions. The predicted flow fields using the trained hybrid DNNs are in good agreement with the flow fields calculated directly by the computational fluid dynamic solver.
