Using Artificial Intelligence to study variations in gas turbine performance.

人工智能（AI）可以快速处理图像。在燃气轮机的环境中，这意味着发动机部件的扫描和视频成像可以自动评估形状的变化，这些变化可能对燃料消耗和发动机寿命产生重大影响。在该项目中，劳斯莱斯的数据将与最新的人工智能和数据挖掘工具、CAD描述、几何变形和3D分析代码相结合，告知工程师几何形状变化对发动机性能的影响。其目的是设计出更能抵抗性能下降的部件，并告知服务团队目前使用的发动机的最佳维修和更换策略。

Artificial Intelligence (AI) allows the rapid processing of images. In the context of gas turbines this means that scans and video imaging of engine parts could be automatically assessed for variations in shape that can have significant impact of fuel consumption and engine life. In this project, data from Rolls-Royce will be combined with the latest AI and data mining tools, CAD descriptions, geometry morphing and 3D analysis codes to inform engineers on the impact of variations in geometry on engine performance. The aim is both to design parts that are more resistant to performance degradation and also to inform service teams of the best repair and replacement strategies for engines currently in use.
