• Abstract: The design of aerodynamic shapes, such as airfoils, has traditionally required significant computational resources and relied on predefined design parameters, which limit the potential for novel shape synthesis. In this work, we introduce a data-driven methodology for airfoil generation using a diffusion model. Trained on a dataset of preexisting airfoils, our model can generate an arbitrary number of new airfoils from random vectors, which can be conditioned on specific aerodynamic performance metrics such as lift and drag, or geometric criteria. Our results demonstrate that the diffusion model effectively produces airfoil shapes with realistic aerodynamic properties, offering substantial improvements in efficiency, flexibility, and the potential for discovering innovative airfoil designs. This approach significantly expands the design space, facilitating the synthesis of high-performance aerodynamic shapes that transcend the limitations of traditional methods.

  We show that generative models have the potential to provide geometries by generalizing geometries over a large dataset of simulations. In particular, we leverage diffusion probabilistic models trained on XFOIL simulations to synthesize two-dimensional airfoil geometries conditioned on given aerodynamic features and constraints. We show that the models are able to generate diverse candidate designs for identical requirements and constraints, effectively exploring the design space to provide multiple starting points to optimization procedures.
