Set up and run an engine flow simulation from one prompt

NavierAI's team says one prompt had their agent set up a supersonic engine-firing simulation, run it on their in-house graphics-card solver and render the start-up.

Done with Custom agent

What they did

NavierAI's team gave their agent one prompt: simulate an engine firing into supersonic air, like a rocket booster slowing to land. The agent set up the case, ran it on the team's own fast solver that uses graphics cards, and made a video of the start-up.

How it went

The team says the run finished and rendered in one morning. They argue such simulations, once reserved for flow specialists, are becoming usable by everyday engineers.

Worth knowing

The solver is the company's own unreleased tool, so this exact setup isn't available to readers yet.

Try it yourself

Using [your simulation software], set up a simulation of [the flow problem, e.g. a jet firing into supersonic air]. First show me the geometry, mesh size, boundary conditions and solver settings you plan to use, and wait for my approval. Then run it, check that the results look physically sensible, and render a short animation of [the quantity to show, e.g. pressure or speed] over time. Summarize any warnings or settings you were unsure about.

Swap the highlighted [parts] for your own details.
