BearCFD-Ventilation

Model Introduction

BearCFD-Ventilation predicts indoor CO2 concentration from the BEAR-CFD dataset. Given historical CO2 distributions and ventilation-control parameters, it forecasts how the CO2 concentration evolves.

This repository is an independent OneScience reproduction of the BearCFD-Ventilation experiment using the paper description, official configuration, and Bear-CFD dataset.

Model Description

BearCFD-Ventilation uses a neural-operator Transformer architecture for transient indoor-ventilation data and performs multistep CO2 forecasting in occupied regions.

Intended Uses

Use case Description
Indoor-ventilation prediction Predict indoor CO2 concentration from supply-air velocity, supply-air angle, and occupancy.
CFD acceleration Build a fast surrogate for transient indoor-ventilation CFD simulations.

2. Manual Setup

Hardware requirements

  • A GPU or DCU is recommended.
  • A CPU can be used for imports and small connectivity checks, but full training and inference will be slow.
  • DCU users should install DTK 25.04.2 or later, or the OneScience-recommended version for the target cluster.

Download the training dataset from Hugging Face

hf download alwaysbyx/Bear-CFD-dataset --repo-type dataset --local-dir ./data

The directory contains unsteady_10.pkl through unsteady_41.pkl. Each sample includes occupied-zone CO2 concentration, inlet velocity, inlet angle, occupancy, and related fields. Before training, verify the data path in config/config.yaml.

Train

python scripts/train.py

The best checkpoint is saved to weight/best_model.pth.

Pretrained weights

The repository includes weight/best_model.pth, trained on BEAR-CFD data and ready for inference.

The recorded test results are relative_l2=0.144541 and rmse=94.616395. Table 3 of the paper reports an ensemble-test l2 error of 10.90%; the values here are from a run on 32 original official samples.
