MHLF: Multigrid-Hierarchical Learning for Aircraft Flow Simulation
The MHLF (Multigrid-Hierarchical Learning Framework) is a novel machine learning approach designed to enhance the speed of engineering-scale three-dimensional aircraft flow simulations while maintaining high numerical accuracy. This innovative method integrates a topologically consistent geometric multigrid representation with a hierarchical approach to tackle the complexities of multiscale regional variations in large aircraft flows. Previous deep learning methods have faced difficulties in scaling to these challenges, often focusing on two-dimensional scenarios, surface metrics, integral aerodynamic coefficients, or simplified three-dimensional models with coarse grids. While high-fidelity computational fluid dynamics is crucial for aerospace design, it is also resource-intensive. MHLF minimizes the numerical gap between initial and converged solutions, boosting efficiency. Further details are available in a preprint on arXiv (2605.30375).
