The computational cost associated with simulating fluid flows can make it infeasible to run many simulations across multiple flow conditions. Building upon concepts from generative modeling, we introduce a new method for learning neural network models capable of performing efficient parameterized simulations of fluid flows. Evaluated on their ability to simulate both two-dimensional and three-dimensional fluid flows, trained models are shown to capture local and global properties of the flowfields at a wide array of flow conditions. Furthermore, flow simulations generated by the trained models are shown to be orders of magnitude faster than the corresponding computational fluid dynamics simulations.
