Abstract
In this paper, we present a new model reduction approach to thermo fluid simulation, enabling large, real-time, detailed thermal flows with continuous user interaction. Our method is ideally suited for real-time simulation of high-resolution thermal fluid dynamics because our simulator is still fast even in the case of large problems expressed by using more than one million meshes. Our results indicate that one thousand times faster simulation can retain same level of accuracy as current methods. In addition, our method provides continuous user interaction in real-time. It allows that we can immediately assess how thermal field changes when controlling air-conditioning equipment in a data center.
