A New Perspective on Fluid Simulation: An Image-to-Image Translation Task via Neural Networks

Abstract

Standard numerical methods for creating simulation models in the field of fluid dynamics are designed to be close to perfection, which results in high computational effort and high computation times in many cases. Unfortunately, there is no mathematical way to decrease this correctness in cases where only approximate predictions are needed. For such cases, we developed an approach based on Neural Networks that is much less time-consuming but nearly as accurate as the numerical model for a human observer. We show that we can keep our results stable and nearly indistinguishable from their numerical counterparts over tenth to hundreds of time steps.
