Adaptive interpolation modeling techniques towards reduced numerical CFD grid computation

该研究项目的目标是开发改进的、低成本的插值模型，以模拟昂贵的计算流体动力学（CFD）求解器，该计算流体动力学（CFD）求解器集成在一个专利的基于物理的组件寿命预测工具中，该工具被称为XactLIFE系统，由工业合作伙伴life prediction Technologies Inc. （LPTi）内部开发。LPTi利用XactLIFE系统为燃气涡轮发动机部件提供基于预测的生命周期管理服务。作为向客户提供新产品的一部分，LPTi旨在为特定发动机定制XactLIFE系统，并预选关键部件。

The goal of this research project is to develop improved and cheap-to-evaluate interpolation models that emulate the expensive computational fluid dynamics (CFD) solver incorporated in a patented physics-based component life prediction tool called the XactLIFE system that has been developed in-house by the industrial partner Life Prediction Technologies Inc. (LPTi). LPTi provides prognostics based life cycle management services for gas turbine engine parts utilizing the XactLIFE system. As part of a new product offering to their clients, LPTi aims to custom build the XactLIFE system for specific engines with preselected critical parts.
