Convolutional autoencoder and neural ODE framework for transient counterflow flame modeling
Researchers propose a reduced-order modeling framework that combines a convolutional autoencoder with a neural ordinary differential equation to serve as a surrogate for simulating transient two-dimensional counterflow flames. The approach extends autoencoder–neural ODE techniques, previously applied to homogeneous reactive systems, to spatially resolved combustion problems. Such surrogates can cut the computational cost of modeling reactive flows.
