摘要
Neural surrogates can accelerate many-query aerodynamic analyses, but their standalone predictions may be insufficiently accurate or robust to support reliable design evaluations. We develop a learned warm-start formulation that predicts mean-flow and turbulence fields directly on native CFD meshes for subsequent correction by the RANS solver. A common architecture and objective structure are used across subcritical and transonic flows, including challenging conditions with shock-induced separation. A condition-modulated Transolver combines Fourier and wall features with target-gated regularization, a Sobolev-type loss, adaptive loss weighting and sampled training. Prediction requires no preliminary flow solution, and training requires no solver-residual evaluation. Extensive 3D CFD evaluations on SuperWing, the NASA Common Research Model (CRM) and DLR-F6 assess geometric and operating-condition generalization, including interpolation, extrapolation and cross-mesh deployment, using Spalart-Allmaras and $k$-$ω$ SST closures on million-cell meshes. Unseen nominal cases achieve geometric-mean iteration speed-ups of approximately $2$-$4\times$ under a common convergence criterion based on cold-run aerodynamic coefficients. On CRM, learned initialization provides greater aggregate acceleration than nearest-condition restarts using the same solution library. Resolution invariance enables direct deployment of coarse-mesh models on finer meshes without retraining, solution interpolation or target-condition coarse solves. Including data generation and training, estimated campaign speed-ups reach $2.1$-$2.3\times$. No warm run diverges; fewer than $2\%$ fail to satisfy the cold-reference convergence criterion. These results support learned initialization for repeated aerodynamic analyses, while highlighting initialization sensitivity near separation as a remaining limitation.
