Although the advent of fast and inexpensive parallel | |
computers has rendered numerous previously intractable | |
calculations feasible, many numerical simulations remain | |
too resource-intensive to be directly inserted in | |
engineering optimization efforts. An attractive | |
alternative to direct insertion considers models for | |
computational systems: the expensive simulation is evoked | |
only to construct and validate a simplified input-output | |
model; this simplified input- output model then serves as | |
a simulation surrogate in subsequent engineering | |
optimization studies. We present here a simple 'Bayesian- | |
validated' statistical framework for the construction, | |
validation, and purposive application of static computer- | |
simulation surrogates. As an example, we consider | |
dissipation-transport optimization of laminar-flow eddy- | |
promoter heat exchangers: parallel spectral element | |
Navier-Stokes calculations serve to construct and | |
validate surrogates for the flowrate and Nusselt number; | |
these surrogates then represent the originating Navier- | |
Stokes equations in the ensuing design process. Numerical | |
