Motivation
Film cooling is a technique commonly used on modern gas turbine blades.LES is too expensive for full blade simulation, so Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) methods required in industry.

Goal
Improve temperature field predictions in RANS simulations of film cooling configurations.

Average transport of scalar due to turbulent fluctuations.Gradient diffusion hypothesis (GDH) is simplest model:
Need to specify
Typical RANS models use fixed Extract from high-fidelity simulationUse machine learning to predict

Conclusions and Future Work
12
We used machine learning approaches to incorporate high-fidelity simulation knowledge into turbulence models, with good results to a film cooling simulation.Test robustness for other film cooling flows and generalize to different classes of turbulent flows.Use data driven models to learn about the underlying physics.Slide13
