A turbulence model built using a deep neural network trained in Tensorflow 1.15.
-
ML_RANS/: A tutorial for setting up an artificial neural network surrogate for a linear eddy-viscosity RANS model. -
ML_LES/: A tutorial for setting up an artificial neural network surrogate for dynamic Smagorinsky coefficient calculation (i.e., bypass test-filtering). -
IN_SITU/: A tutorial for setting up a neural network training from within OpenFOAM to avoid disk IO. NOTE: We have observed some training instances to suffer from segfaults due to impromper initial (randomized) choices for weights and biases (be careful).
The following steps will get you started with a data-driven turbulence model deployed in OpenFOAM 5. I am assuming you have already installed and successfully run OpenFOAM 5 prior to this. Also, this tutorial will be based on Linux (Ubuntu 18.04) at this point of time.
We suggest the creation of a new Python 3.6.9 virtual environment (either in conda or venv) and the installation of relevant packages for this tutorial using
pip install -r requirements.txt
You can download the TensorFlow C API at https://www.tensorflow.org/install/lang_c. Follow instructions there to install on your machine. This tutorial/model is designed for the Linux CPU only release. Briefly, the instructions to install (if you have root access) are:
sudo tar -C /usr/local -xzf (downloaded file)sudo ldconfig
and you are good to go. If you do not have root access and need to place the TensorFlow C API at an arbitrary location you may use the following steps:
tar -C /path/to/api -xzf (downloaded file)export LIBRARY_PATH=$LIBRARY_PATH:/path/to/api/libexport LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/path/to/api/lib
Note that steps 2 and 3 either need to be added to your .bashrc file or need to be executed each time a new terminal session is started.
Update: The new version of the C API are for TensorFlow 2.4 and have not been tested with the contents of this repository. You may obtain the C API tarball for 1.15 in misc/.
After Step 2 is complete test that your API is configured correctly by executing the following code (which you can save in hello_tf.cpp
//Working on some tensorflow and c++ implementations
#include <stdio.h>
#include <tensorflow/c/c_api.h>
int main() {
printf("Hello from TensorFlow C library version %s\n", TF_Version());
return 0;
}
by using
g++ hello_tf.cpp -ltensorflow./a.outto obtain the following output
Hello from TensorFlow C library version 1.15.0
If you face an error here (perhaps due to not linking appropriately in the absence of root priveleges) try using:
g++ -I/path/to/api/include -L/path/to/api/lib hello_tf.cpp -ltensorflow
for step 2.
If you have reached this point - congratulations you are ready to use TensorFlow 1.15 within OpenFOAM 5. You may utilize the individual READMEs from ML_RANS/, ML_LES and IN-SITU (documentation for the latter two are in-progress) to construct a neural network based turbulence model for training/deployment in OpenFOAM.
