Abstract
Turbulence is a well-ploughed area in computational fluid dynamics (CFD). However, modern DNS-LES-RANS techniques are still computationally heavy and/or inaccurate at high Reynolds numbers. Due to lack of fine-granularity and optimality with manual tuning of model parameters, an opportunity for machine learning emerges. This paper delivers accurate turbulence models dynamically, by combining decades old scientific turbulence foundations with novel Physics Informed Machine Learning (PIML) techniques. As a starting point, we train different regression and neural network algorithms over Isotropy Cases, yet we plan to extend our work with all anisotropy cases that can be represented within the universal Lumley triangle.
