Compressible Potential Flow problem

Author: Riccardo Tosi

Kratos version: 9.0

XMC version: Kratos default version

PyCOMPSs version: Kratos default version to run in serial, >2.8 to run with runcompss

Source files: Asynchronous Monte Carlo and Asynchronous Multilevel Monte Carlo

Application dependencies: CompressiblePotentialFlowApplication, LinearSolversApplications, MappingApplication, MeshingApplication, MultilevelMonteCarloApplication

Case Specification

We solve the compressible potential flow problem around an airfoil NACA0012. The problem is characterized by stochastic angle of attack and stochastic Mach number . The problem is presented in our work [1].

The problem can be run with four different algorithms:

  • Synchronous Monte Carlo (SMC),
  • Asynchronous Monte Carlo (AMC),
  • Synchronous Multilevel Monte Carlo (SMLMC),
  • Asynchronous Multilevel Monte Carlo (AMLMC),

and by default AMC and AMLMC are selected. If one is interested in running SMC or SMLMC, it is needed to select asynchronous = false in the solver wrapper settings. Please observe that for running you may want to increase the number of realizations per level.

The Quantities of Interest of the problem are the lift coefficient and the pressure coefficient. Statistical convergence is assessed for the lift coefficient.

Similar settings are employed for Monte Carlo and Multilevel Monte Carlo. We refer, for example, to: deterministic number of samples estimation, deterministic number of indices estimation, maximum number of iterations, tolerance, confidence, etc. Such settings can be observed in the corresponding configuration file of each algorithm, located inside the problem_settings folder.

To run the examples, the user should go inside the folder-algorithm of interest and run the run_mc/mlmc_Kratos.py Python file. In case one wants to use PyCOMPSs, the user should execute run_runcompss.sh from inside the folder of interest.

Results

The pressure coefficient for the problem is shown next.

The pressure coefficient risk measure is shown next.

pressure coefficient risk measure

The power sums and the h-statistics of both the lift coefficient and the pressure coefficient can be found here. The lift coefficient expected value is consistent with literature results [2].
