  Incorporating computational fluid dynamics in the design process of jets,
spacecraft, or gas turbine engines is often challenged by the required
computational resources and simulation time, which depend on the chosen
physics-based computational models and grid resolutions. An ongoing problem in
the field is how to simulate these systems faster but with sufficient accuracy.
While many approaches involve simplified models of the underlying physics,
others are model-free and make predictions based only on existing simulation
data. We present a novel model-free approach in which we reformulate the
simulation problem to effectively increase the size of constrained pre-computed
datasets and introduce a novel neural network architecture (called a cluster
network) with an inductive bias well-suited to highly nonlinear computational
fluid dynamics solutions. Compared to the state-of-the-art in model-based
approximations, we show that our approach is nearly as accurate, an order of
magnitude faster, and easier to apply. Furthermore, we show that our method
outperforms other model-free approaches.
