- 适合风洞监测、飞行器性能实时调整等需要快速适应的场景。
确定来流参数对风洞测试及飞行器、风力机运行至关重要。传统依赖直接测量,易受传感器故障影响。本文提出基于表面压力数据的迁移学习方法,用于预测迎角和来流速度。先离线训练卷积神经网络(ConvNet)完成核心预测任务,随后冻结除输出前几层外的所有权重,再通过微调这些层实现迁移学习。实验基于稳态CFD仿真数据,验证了该方法在域迁移(源域与目标域数据分布不同)和任务迁移(预测任务变更)中的有效性。进一步分析噪声数据影响、扩展域表现及采样量与网络结构的权衡。结果表明,该方法在应对数据分布变化、域扩展和任务更新方面表现良好;但在噪声数据下效果有限。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
Determining onflow parameters is crucial from the perspectives of wind tunnel testing and regular flight and wind turbine operations. These parameters have traditionally been predicted via direct measurements which might lead to challenges in case of sensor faults. Alternatively, a data-driven prediction model based on surface pressure data can be used to determine these parameters. It is essential that such predictors achieve close to real-time learning as dictated by practical applications such as monitoring wind tunnel operations or learning the variations in aerodynamic performance of aerospace and wind energy systems. To overcome the challenges caused by changes in the data distribution as well as in adapting to a new prediction task, we propose a transfer learning methodology to predict the onflow parameters, specifically angle of attack and onflow speed. It requires first training a convolutional neural network (ConvNet) model offline for the core prediction task, then freezing the weights of this model except the selected layers preceding the output node, and finally executing transfer learning by retraining these layers. A demonstration of this approach is provided using steady CFD analysis data for an airfoil for i) domain adaptation where transfer learning is performed with data from a target domain having different data distribution than the source domain and ii) task adaptation where the prediction task is changed. Further exploration on the influence of noisy data, performance on an extended domain, and trade studies varying sampling sizes and architectures are provided. Results successfully demonstrate the potential of the approach for adaptation to changing data distribution, domain extension, and task update while the application for noisy data is concluded to be not as effective.
