Problem
2D Airfoil
Fluid Dynamics 2D
A fixed airfoil profile in steady freestream flow, with angle of attack as the design knob. Surrogates predict lift and drag for performance, plus the surface pressure coefficient (Cp) field that loads the wing. Mesh and Reynolds number stay fixed, so the hard part is getting forces and Cp right as AoA changes. The smallest step into external aero before a full wing or vehicle.

Scope and limits
Comparability
2D external aero, not comparable with 3D vehicle or structural problems. Mesh and Reynolds number are fixed within the open training corpus.
Ground truth
CFD from Rescale AI Physics training exports (OpenFOAM simpleFoam). Holdout cases use simulation truth for Cl, Cd, and nodal Cp.
