  • 支持有缺陷网格,适合早期设计快速迭代

传统基于计算流体动力学的气动外形优化计算成本高昂,限制了设计空间探索。本文提出TripOptimizer,一个完全可微的深度学习框架,可直接从车辆点云数据实现快速气动分析与外形优化。该框架采用基于三平面的隐式神经表示变分自编码器,实现高保真3D几何重建,并配备阻力系数预测头。模型在包含8000个独特车体几何及其对应阻力系数(通过雷诺平均Navier-Stokes模拟计算)的大规模DrivAerNet++数据集上训练,学习到编码气动关键几何特征的潜在表示。我们提出一种优化策略,通过调整编码器部分参数,引导初始几何向目标阻力值演化,在案例研究中实现高达11.8%的阻力系数降低。结果经独立高保真CFD仿真验证(网格超过1500万单元)。隐式表示对几何瑕疵具有天然鲁棒性,可处理非密封网格,解决了传统伴随方法的难题。该框架显著提升了气动外形优化效率,减少早期设计阶段对昂贵CFD的依赖。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

The computational cost of traditional Computational Fluid Dynamics-based Aerodynamic Shape Optimization severely restricts design space exploration. This paper introduces TripOptimizer, a fully differentiable deep learning framework for rapid aerodynamic analysis and shape optimization directly from vehicle point cloud data. TripOptimizer employs a Variational Autoencoder featuring a triplane-based implicit neural representation for high-fidelity 3D geometry reconstruction and a drag coefficient prediction head. Trained on DrivAerNet++, a large-scale dataset of 8,000 unique vehicle geometries with corresponding drag coefficients computed via Reynolds-Averaged Navier-Stokes simulations, the model learns a latent representation that encodes aerodynamically salient geometric features. We propose an optimization strategy that modifies a subset of the encoder parameters to steer an initial geometry towards a target drag value, and demonstrate its efficacy in case studies where optimized designs achieved drag coefficient reductions up to 11.8\%. These results were subsequently validated by using independent, high-fidelity Computational Fluid Dynamics simulations with more than 150 million cells. A key advantage of the implicit representation is its inherent robustness to geometric imperfections, enabling optimization of non-watertight meshes, a significant challenge for traditional adjoint-based methods. The framework enables a more agile Aerodynamic Shape Optimization workflow, reducing reliance on computationally intensive CFD simulations, especially during early design stages.
